CASE REPORT De Novo Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation: Case Report and Literature Review

چکیده
J. Stevens J.L. Leach T. Abruzzo B.V. Jones SUMMARY: We describe a rare case of a de novo cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in a 9-year-old girl. MR imaging at 6 years of age demonstrated band heterotopia. Follow-up MR imaging 3 years later demonstrated a new 3.5-cm AVM in the left parietol-occipital region, confirmed by conventional angiography. This report, along with limited previous reports, suggests that AVMs can be acquired lesions and that AVM development is a dynamic process extending into the postnatal period.

متن کاملDe 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.
