Long 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 کاملGold Nanoparticles in Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformations
Objective of the study: To explore the potential for therapeutic gain with gold nanoparticles in arteriovenous malformation radiosurgery based on their interaction with photons and protons. Study methods: Radiation dose enhancement resulting from the interaction of gold nanoparticles with irradiation ranging from kilovoltage to megavoltage photons and protons was researched in the literature. T...
متن کاملAngiographic complications during stereotactic radiosurgery for cerebral arteriovenous malformations.
During the past 20 years, stereotactic radiosurgery in the form of a multisource cobalt-60 gamma knife has been used to treat more than 1500 selected cases of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) worldwide (1-5). Precise three-dimensional localization of the target volume is required for computer planning and radiation dose determination (6). Although either computed tomography (CT) ...
متن کاملLong-term results of radiosurgery for cerebral arteriovenous malformations.
BACKGROUND Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is known to safely result in a high obliteration rate for small and medium sized arteriovenous malformations (AVM). OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term outcome of patients treated with SRS, with special emphasis given to obliteration and toxicity rates. METHODS We performed a review of 43 cerebral AVM patients, treated from 1998 to 2008 with a sing...
متن کاملRadiosurgery 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...
