BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Radiation-induced changes can occur after stereotactic
radiosurgery for brain AVMs, potentially causing symptomatic complications. We evaluated …

Abstract Background The reported AVMs obliteration rate after Gamma Knife radiosurgery
(GKS) ranges from 70 to 94%. The objective of the present study was to assess prognostic …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: T2 signal and FLAIR changes in patients undergoing
stereotactic radiosurgery for brain AVMs may occur posttreatment and could result in …

Discussion The aim of gamma knife in the use of AVMs is the obliteration of the lesion with
relatively little effect on the rest of the brain. The timing and degree of pathological change …

OBJECTIVE Dosimetric radiosurgery incidents are rare and probably insufficiently reported
in scientific publications. After a long follow-up (FU), the authors studied the outcomes of …

Background The reported efficacy of AVM radiosurgery—80–85% 2-year obliteration rate—
is based exclusively on the results of follow-up arteriography in a small percentage of …

The ideal management of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) would eliminate the risk of
hemorrhage, have no treatment-associated morbidity, and be well tol-erated by patients …

In this issue of the Journal of Neurosurgery, Yen and colleagues present a series of 31
patients with incidentally discovered arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) that were treated …

The difference between the results from GKS and LINAC treatment deserves comment. The
radiation dose during GKS varied from 25 Gy to the 50% isodose contour for AVMs with less …

Objectives Seizure control after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for arteriovenous
malformations (AVMs) is an area of growing interest, with previous studies reporting up to …
