Coexistence of moyamoya syndrome with arteriovenous malformation. Systematic review and illustrative case report.

The coexistence of Moyamoya Syndrome with Arteriovenous Malformation is exceedingly rare. Here, we present the case of a 37-year-old female patient diagnosed with AVM in the right parietal lobe, accompanied by severe stenosis of the right middle cerebral artery and right anterior cerebral artery, along with moyamoya collateral induction. Our objective was to investigate the frequency and mutual influence of these conditions, and to determine a preferable treatment strategy by conducting a comprehensive review of previous case reports.

Sporadic multiple cerebral arteriovenous malformations: case report and systematic review of additional 80 cases.

Introduction: In absence of hereditary diseases multiple brain arteriovenous malformations are extremely rare. The case series that would include more than 13 patients are unlikely to be found, which causes an obstacle to comprehensively analyzing the peculiarities of epidemiology, symptoms and treatment options for this disorder. We describe patent with two independent arteriovenous malformations in frontal and parietal lobes that have been treated with combination of preoperative embolization, surgical excision and stereotactic radiosurgery.

Microstructure of embolized capsule of chronic subdural hematoma.

Background: Chronic subdural hematomas (cSDHs) are frequent and potentially life-threatening neurosurgical conditions affecting, first of all, elderly. Few treatment options are available ranging from observation to removal thought large craniotomy. However, currently, there is tendency to minimize surgical aggression, especially considering poor general condition of elderly patients.

Sixteen years progress in recanalization of chronic carotid artery occlusion: A comprehensive review.

Objective: Although chronic carotid artery occlusion seems to be associated with significant risk of ischemic stroke, revascularization techniques are neither well established nor widespread. In contrast, extracranial-intracranial bypass is common despite the lack of evidence regarding neurological improvement or prevention of ischemic events. The aim of current review is to evaluate the effectiveness of various methods of recanalization of chronic carotid artery occlusion.

Dural arteriovenous fistula in the sphenoid bone lesser wing region: Endovascular adjuvant techniques of treatment and literature review.

This article describes the successful endovascular treatment of a dural arteriovenous fistula of a rare localization (the area of sphenoid bone lesser region). We examine one report of an unusually located dural arteriovenous fistula successfully treated with Onyx (ev3, Irvine, USA) using a combination of endovascular adjuvant techniques: pressure cooker and remodeling balloon protection of cerebral artery. The article includes previously published observations of such fistulas and discusses anatomic features and venous drainage of dural arteriovenous fistulas in the given location.
