Objective: To analyze the initial results of endovascular embolization of cerebral arteriovenous malformations involving high-flow arteriovenous fistulae with non-adhesive agents on the background of cardioplegia.
OBJECTIVE
Extremely high flow through arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) may limit the safety and effectiveness of endovascular glue therapy. To achieve a more controlled deposition of glue, we used transient but profound systemic hypotension afforded by an intravenously administered bolus of
BACKGROUND
Adenosine-induced asystole has been used to induce transient systemic hypotension for various vascular procedures. Dose-response characteristics of adenosine-induced ventricular asystole have not been determined.
METHODS
During endovascular embolization of cerebral arteriovenous
The effect of intravenous infusion of adenosine on CBF was studied in seven patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformation. The patients were examined with positron emission tomography with controlled ventilation using [15O] water and [11C] fluoromethane as tracers. Total and regional CBF were
OBJECTIVE
The expression and localization of phosphorylated Fas-associated death domain protein (pFADD) and cleaved caspase-8 was examined in human cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). The authors focused on the perinidal parenchyma to clarify the effect of AVMs on perinidal brain
OBJECTIVE
To describe cerebellar arteriovenous malformation in a 21-year-old man with symptoms resembling those of ear disease and to discuss the relationship between the findings of neurotologic examination and magnetic resonance imaging.
METHODS
Case report.
