De Novo Arteriovenous Malformation after Aneurysm Clipping
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a 73-year-old woman with de novo arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) that developed in the ipsilateral parietal lobe after craniotomy and aneurysm clipping. While intracerebral AVMs are considered to be congenital lesions, there have been several reported cases of acquired AVM arising after ischemic or traumatic episodes. We summarize previously reported cases of such acquired 'de novo' AVMs with a discussion of some pathophysiological responses or factors suggested to promote their development.

De novo aneurysm formation after stereotactic radiosurgery of a residual arteriovenous malformation: case report.
We report a case of a 19-year-old woman who underwent radiosurgical treatment of a residual arteriovenous malformation. Nine months after treatment, repeat angiography revealed a de novo paranidal aneurysm that was treated endovascularly. We postulate that changes in flow dynamics or vessel integrity after radiosurgery contributed to the formation of her de novo aneurysm.
متن کاملDe Novo Aneurysm Formation Following Gamma Knife Surgery for Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report
Background Stereotactic radiosurgery plays a critical role in the treatment of central nervous system neoplasm and cerebrovascular malformations. This procedure is purportedly less invasive, but problems occurring later including tumor formation, necrosis, and vasculopathy-related diseases have been reported. Clinical Presentation We report on a 65-year-old man who had experienced a de novo ane...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of anterior choroidal artery aneurysms.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ischemic stroke is the most common complication after surgical clipping of anterior choroidal artery (AChA) aneurysms, and the reported morbidity-mortality rates vary from 5% to 50%. We report the findings in a series of 18 consecutive patients who underwent endovascular treatment (EVT) for an AChA berry aneurysm. METHODS In this retrospective study, the aneurysms were ...
متن کاملLong-Term Angiographic Findings in Patients Treated With Microsurgical Clipping of Intracranial Aneurysms
Microsurgical clipping remains a durable treatment for intracranial aneurysms. Despite the low rate of re-treatment, recurrence of subarachnoid hemorrhage is 3% within the first 10 years. This may be caused by rupture of a recurrent or residual aneurysm at the clip site or by rupture of another untreated aneurysm. We investigated the natural history of aneurysms treated with microsurgical clipp...
متن کاملDe novo cavernous malformation after radiosurgery for cerebellar arteriovenous malformation: A case report
Stereotactic radiosurgery, including gamma knife radiosurgery (GKS), can in rare cases result in de novo cavernous malformations (CMs). Here, we present a case of de novo CM induced by GKS following treatment of a cerebellar arteriovenous malformation (AVM). A 48-year-old woman was diagnosed with left unilateral Moyamoya disease. Conventional cerebral angiography also revealed an AVM in the lef...
