Teaching NeuroImages: cerebral arteriovenous malformation in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
A 41-year-old woman with a history of recurrent epistaxis presented with left hemiplegia, right gaze deviation, and dysarthria. Physical examination confirmed skin and lip telangiectasia (figure 1). Her son had pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Her head CT and cerebral angiography revealed right parietal hemorrhage with parasagittal AVM (figure 2). Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasi...
متن کاملSpontaneous regression of cerebral arteriovenous malformation in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). I report a case of a patient with HHT with four cerebral AVMs in whom one AVM spontaneously regressed during a 5-year period. The spontaneous regression of this AVM in this patient with HHT supports the theory that AVMs associated with this syndrome have a different natural history than ...

Adam Strzelczyk, MD Ulrich Sure, MD Felix Rosenow, MD A 34-year-old man with refractory epilepsy due to an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the right postcentral gyrus (figure, A) was evaluated for epilepsy surgery.1 After study of the size, location, and depth of the lesion, we decided to defer resection, radiosurgery, and embolization because of concern that intervention would result in ne...
متن کاملReal-time imaging of de novo arteriovenous malformation in a mouse model of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are vascular anomalies where arteries and veins are directly connected through a complex, tangled web of abnormal arteries and veins instead of a normal capillary network. AVMs in the brain, lung, and visceral organs, including the liver and gastrointestinal tract, result in considerable morbidity and mortality. AVMs are the underlying cause of three major cli...
متن کاملHemorrhage rates from brain arteriovenous malformation in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a systemic disease characterized by mucocutaneous telangiectasias, epistaxis, and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) rates in this population are not well described. We report ICH rates and characteristics in HHT patients with brain AVMs (HHT-BAVMs). METHODS We studied the first 153 HHT-BAVM p...
