Arteriovenous malformations of the brain are congenital vascular lesions that affect 0.01-0.50% of the population, and are generally present in patients aged 20-40 years. The usual clinical presentations are haemorrhage, seizures, progressive neurological deficit, or headache. Results of natural history studies have shown a yearly haemorrhage rate of 1-4%. Frequency of rebleeding has increased over the years, and several factors that increase risk of haemorrhage have been identified. Although… CONTINUE READING

Observational Clinical Trial
Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are abnormal vessels, connecting cerebral
arteries and veins. They form a bundle which is called nidus. Rupture of an AVM leads to… Expand
