Background: Endovascular embolization is being increasingly used to treat cerebral arteriovenousmalformations.
2
Background: Fistulas and arteriovenousmalformations have been occluded using various devices.
3
Embolization is a well-established method of treatment of arteriovenousmalformations.
4
In these 4 cases total ablation of the arteriovenousmalformations with alcohol was successful.
5
Both CT and MRI showed all arteriovenousmalformations and tumors.
6
Fourteen patients with arteriovenousmalformations were treated with surgical resection followed by well-vascularized tissue transfer.
7
This therapeutic concept can be expected to provide great remission in the treatment of arteriovenousmalformations.
8
Ablation of renal arteriovenousmalformations with absolute alcohol was performed in seven patients with massive hematuria.
9
Assessment of the vascular morphology revealed enlarged, tortuous vessels in the lungs that resembled arteriovenousmalformations.
10
These data suggest that alcohol ablation is useful and safe in the treatment of renal arteriovenousmalformations.
11
They represent less than 1 p. 100 of the cerebral arteriovenousmalformations.
12
Purpose: We evaluate the long-term efficacy and side effects of transarterial embolization and ablation for renal arteriovenousmalformations.
13
Radiation therapy plays a critical role in the treatment of central nervous system neoplasms and cerebral arteriovenousmalformations.
14
Diffuse pulmonary arteriovenousmalformations or pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) may result from congenital portosystemic venous shunts.
15
Conclusions: Partial or total transarterial ablation of arteriovenousmalformations with alcohol proved effective for long-term cessation of hematuria.
16
Our results suggest that histologically and immunohistochemically they are closer to incipient arteriovenousmalformations than to capillary malformations.
