Cerebral arteriovenous malformation causing epistaxis.
Epistaxis can be life threatening and may not respond to conventional conservative measures such as packing. In our institution, between 1984 and 1991, we have treated 65 patients with embolization who had epistaxis that did not stop with nasal packing, with a success rate of 90%. This case report illustrates an unusual example of epistaxis due to a right frontal arteriovenous malformation (A V...
متن کاملMorbidity of intracranial hemorrhage in patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Decisions on invasive arteriovenous malformation (AVM) treatment are currently based on natural-course risk estimates of AVM bleeding and assumptions on morbidity from cerebral hemorrhage in general. However, morbidity of AVM hemorrhage has rarely been reported. We sought to assess the morbidity of intracranial hemorrhage in patients with cerebral AVMs. METHODS From a p...
متن کاملDiffuse cerebral arteriovenous malformation.
Diffuse cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a rare disorder of the brain and defined as diffuse infiltration of brain by complex vascular structures. It is usually associated with hereditary syndromes and presented with hemorrhage or seizure. We report a 20-year-old male patient who presented with drooping of the left eyelid. He had no skin lesion. The ophthalmological examination was ...
متن کاملAnesthesia and intracranial arteriovenous malformation.
Anesthetic management of intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) poses multiple challenges to the anesthesiologist in view of its complex and poorly understood pathophysiology and multiple modalities for its treatment involving different sub-specialties. The diagnosis of AVM is based on clinical presentation as well as radiological investigation. Pregnant patients with intracranial AVM an...
متن کاملIntrapulmonary arteriovenous malformation causing recurrent strokes
This case reveals a left pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) as a cause of recurrent cerebral and cerebellar emboli. Extensive workup excluded other etiologies of emboli formation, and the patient was transferred to a tertiary care center for percutaneous embolotherapy. In the absence of a clear etiology, PAVM should be considered as a potential cause of recurrent cerebral emboli, espec...
