Long-term Outcomes of Gamma Knife Surgery for Posterior Fossa Arteriovenous Malformations
The long-term outcomes of gamma knife surgery (GKS) in patients with posterior fossa arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) were retrospectively analyzed in 82 patients followed up for more than 5 years to evaluate the efficacy and safety. The median AVM volume at GKS was 0.95 cm(3). The prescribed dose to the AVM margin was median 18 Gy with 1-18 isocenters. The actual complete AVM obliteration ra...
متن کاملLong term effects of Gamma knife Radiosurgery for treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations
Abstract Background: The Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKR) is an established management option for Cerebral Ar-teriovenous Malformations (AVMS). Therapeutic benefits of radiosurgery for arteriovenous malformations are complete obliteration of nidus with minimal neurological deficit. Methods: Radiosurgery was performed between February 2003 and April 2010 at Kamraniye day clinic, Teh-ran, Iran, us...
متن کاملManagement of posterior fossa arteriovenous malformations
BACKGROUND Posterior fossa arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare vascular lesions, representing 7-15% of all intracranial AVMs. Although less frequent than supratentorial AVMs, they present higher rupture, morbidity, and mortality rates. Microsurgery, radiosurgery, and endovascular neurosurgery are treatment options for obliteration of those lesions. In this paper, we present a critical r...
متن کاملStereotaxic angiography in gamma knife radiosurgery of intracranial arteriovenous malformations.
Gamma knife radiosurgery is an effective alternative to embolization or microsurgical removal of small arteriovenous malformations, particularly in eloquent areas of brain tissue. Stereotaxic angiography is a useful diagnostic and targeting adjunct to gamma knife radiosurgery, and the authors present their experience (1,100 patients) with methods and technique, and show how the nidus of the art...
متن کاملEmbolization with Gamma Knife Radiosurgery of Giant Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations.
AIM Giant arteriovenous malformations (i.e., those greater than 6 cm maximum diameter or volume > 33 cc) are difficult to treat and often carry higher treatment morbidity and mortality rates. In our study, we reviewed the angiographic results and clinical outcomes for 11 patients with giant arteriovenous malformations who were treated between 1994 and 2012. MATERIAL AND METHODS The patients s...
