Radiosurgery with a linear accelerator in cerebral arteriovenous malformations.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate results achieved with radiosurgery and complications of the procedure when treating arteriovenous malformations with linear accelerator. METHODS This retrospective study was conducted between October 1993 and December 1996. Sixty-one patients with arteriovenous malformations were treated with radiosurgery utilizing a 6MV energy linear accelerator. Ages of the 32 female a...
متن کاملLinear accelerator-based radiosurgery for multiple arteriovenous malformations: case report.
This report presents a rare case of multiple, widely spaced arteriovenous malformations in a single patient treated with linear accelerator-based radiosurgery. The choices associated with the requisite imaging and planning are presented. In light of the anatomic topography, linear accelerator-based radiosurgery was chosen over gamma knife treatment, with CT angiography being used to image all t...
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.

متن کاملOutcome of cerebral arteriovenous malformations after linear accelerator reirradiation
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients undergoing single-dose reirradiation using the Linear Accelerator (LINAC) for brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM). METHODS A retrospective study of 37 patients with brain AVM undergoing LINAC reirradiation between April 2003 and November 2011 was carried out. Patient characteristics, for example, gender, age...
متن کاملLinear accelerator radiosurgery for arteriovenous malformations: the relationship of size to outcome.
Between May, 1988 and August, 1993, 158 patients with arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) were treated radiosurgically at the University of Florida. A mean dose of 1560 cGy was directed to the periphery of the lesions, which had a mean volume of 9 cc (0.5 to 45.3 cc). One hundred thirty-nine of these individuals were treated with one isocenter. The mean follow-up interval was 33 months with clin...
