Onyx in Brain Arteriovenous Malformation Embolisation.
INTRODUCTION Embolisation has long been used as an adjunct to surgical resection in the treatment of brain arteriovenous malformation (bAVM). The most commonly used embolic material, n-butylcyanoacrylate glue, requires experience and skill to handle its quick and unpredictable flow and polymerisation. A new liquid embolic agent, ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx), is less adhesive and poly...
متن کاملPrevalence of brain arteriovenous malformations in first-degree relatives of patients with a brain arteriovenous malformation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It is uncertain whether familial occurrence of brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) represents coincidental aggregation or a shared familial risk factor. We aimed to compare the prevalence of BAVMs in first-degree relatives (FDRs) of patients with BAVM and the prevalence in the general population. METHODS We sent a postal questionnaire to 682 patients diagnosed wit...
متن کاملInduction of brain arteriovenous malformation in the adult mouse.
Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVM) are tangles of abnormal, dilated vessels that directly shunt blood between the arteries and veins. The pathogenesis of bAVM is currently unknown. Patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) have a higher prevalence of bAVM than the general population. Animal models are important tools for dissecting the disease etiopathogenesis and for test...
متن کاملRadiosurgical retreatment for brain arteriovenous malformation.
OBJECTIVE To analyze our experience with a second radiosurgical treatment for brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) after an unsuccessful first radiosurgical treatment. METHODS Between 1993 and 2000, 242 patients were treated by the Toronto Sunnybrook Regional Cancer Center using a LINAC system. Fifteen of these patients required a second radiosurgical intervention due to the failure of t...
متن کاملIn Situ -Irradiation of a Brain Arteriovenous Malformation Model
Background and Purpose—The treatment of large brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) is challenging, and embolization alone is seldom curative. The study goal is to enhance the efficacy of arteriovenous malformation embolization by adding a -emitting isotope to the embolic agent. Methods—The pig rete mirabile was used as a BAVM model. The body distribution of radioactivity was evaluated afte...
