Arterio-venous malformations in childhood: Clinical presentation, results after operative treatment and long-term follow-up

1989

In a series of 182 arterio-venous malformations (AVM) recently published [8] we found 33 children aged 1 to 16 years. In 28 cases, the admitting condition was hemorrhage. For 31 AVMs total excision was possible. We observed one postoperative death accounting for a mortality of 3%. All children but two were followed-up by personal examination. Two were not able to work due to severe neurological deficits and seven had not been able to get into their intended occupation.

Cerebral angiomas: Influence of morphological aspects such as size and site on their clinical behavior with special reference to the mode of bleeding

1987

The following paper presents analysis of 182 cases of arteriovenous malformations treated surgically at the Neurosurgical Department of the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, FRG. Although the behavior of AVMs remains unpredictable, morphological features of AVMs have an important bearing on their clinical presentation, especially the mode of bleeding.
