Stereotactic Radiosurgery of Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations
Stereotactic radiosurgery for intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) has been performed since the 1970s. When an AVM is treated with radiosurgery, radiation injury to the vascular endothelium induces the proliferation of smooth muscle cells and the elaboration of extracellular collagen, which leads to progressive stenosis and obliteration of ...

INTRACRANIAL ARTERIOVENOUS MALFORMATIONS: SURGICAL TREATMENT
BACKGROUND Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are congenital dysplastic processes. What separates an AVM from the others dysplastic vascular malformations, as developmental venous anomalies, capillary telangiectasias and cavernous malformation, is the ...

Case Study of a Complex Neurovascular Disorder: Choroidal Arteriovenous Malformation
This study conducts an in-depth analysis of the management of a complex arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in a 44-year-old individual, who initially manifested with acute left hemiparesis and progressively declined into a comatose state.
