Title: Endovascular treatment of intracranial arteriovenous malformations Authors: ID Šeruga, Tomaž (Author) Files: PDF - Presentation file, download (106,45 KB) MD5: ED1E257EDB91B714F45030963B002253   Language: English Typology: 1.01 - Original Scientific Article Organization: OI - Institute of Oncology Abstract: Background. The aim of the study was the introduction of endovascular treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVM) with superselective embolization with polymerisation agent. Case reports. Endovascular embolization was performed in five patients with cerebral AVMs. Three of these patients were presented with intracerebral haemathomas whereas in other two patients, cerebral AVM was an incidental finding. Superselective catheterisation of AVMs was performed and acrylic glue was selectively injected into the nidus. Conclusions. Control cerebral angiography after embolization of AVM showed different results. In one patient, AVM was totally occluded after three sessions and in the second case AVM was occluded in a single session. The rate of occlusion in other two cases was estimated between 70% in 80%. Both of these two patients underwent surgery. One patient is still in the process of treatment. Endovascular treatment of cerebral AVMs with superselective embolization with liquid cyanoacrilyc adhesive agent is a safe and effective alternative treatment paths next to microsurgery. Endovascular tratment in combination with radiosurgery could become the method of choice in the therapy of cerebral AVMs in the future.
