Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) associated with aneurysm have rarely been reported in the literature. The present study reports the case of a 21-year-old pregnant female patient who presented with a subarachnoid hemorrhage and an intracranial hematoma located in the anterior end of the corpus callosum. Furthermore, an anterior cerebral aneurysm and an AVM were identified by digital subtracti...

been frequently reported in literature, but almost all the reported AVMs were angiodysplasias. Unlike AVM that has a congenital origin, angiodysplasia is a degenerative disease usually present in elderly patients. Intestinal AVMs are very rare, and only a few cases have been reported (1, 2). Here, we report a case of an intestinal AVM, and discuss the confusion between the 2 terminologies-AVM a...

We describe a cervical congenital paraspinal arteriovenous malformation (AVM) drained by paraspinal and epidural ectatic veins, which caused massive erosion of the C6 and C7 vertebral bodies, threatening the cervical stability and necessitating treatment. During the first session, six arterial embolizations were performed to reduce the size and the flow of the AVM. Two months later, a venous ap...

During the creation of this paper, we interviewed industry participants and gathered research information from available publications and corporate websites. We thank for their input and guidance.

OBJECTIVE Infantile hemangioma and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the liver have a similar presentation but a different natural history, and therefore require different treatment. This study was undertaken to clarify differential diagnosis and management of these two biologically distinct vascular disorders. STUDY DESIGN We retrospectively analyzed the records of 43 children with hepatic...

Brain Arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are abnormal communication between parts of cranial arterial and venous systems with the lack of a true nutritive and absorptive capillary bed [1]. The universal prevalence of AVM is relatively uncommon, with a prevalence ranging from 0.01-0.5%, 10/100000 to 140500/100000 specifically [2-7] clustering between 3rd and 5th decade i.e. presenting usually bef...

Intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a rare cause of trigeminal neuralgia (TGN). In this presented case, successful resolution of AVM-related TGN following embolization and gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery (GKRS) was obtained. A patient suffered from TGN on the left side, which was thought to be caused by root entry zone compression by dilated superior cerebellar artery (SCA) a...

We sought to use diffusion-tensor imaging-based tractography to assess the relationship between the arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and the sensorimotor cortices/tracts. Three patients who had an AVM closely situated to the sensorimotor tracts were studied. The relationship between the sensorimotor tracts and the AVM was well demonstrated in all patients. Tractography was also helpful in iden...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients undergoing single-dose reirradiation using the Linear Accelerator (LINAC) for brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM). METHODS A retrospective study of 37 patients with brain AVM undergoing LINAC reirradiation between April 2003 and November 2011 was carried out. Patient characteristics, for example, gender, age...
