Background: Hemorrhage is a major complication of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) embolization, which can be related to persistent arteriovenous shunts that were not completely occluded during the embolization. In transvenous embolization (TVE) this risk is deemed higher for AVMs larger than 3 cm featuring multiple veins of drainage. Herein, we will discuss a few selected cases where brain AVMs with more than one draining vein were deemed safe for curative embolization with advanced endovascular techniques after a careful anatomical study through the four dimensional-digital subtraction angiography (4D-DSA) imaging.

Amyloid related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) are side effects of anti-Abeta immunotherapy, which are most frequent and associated with greater morbidity in ApoE4 individuals. ARIA are characterized by neurovascular inflammation, leading either to increased vascular permeability and edema (ARIA-E), or to more severe vascular damage and microhemorrhages (ARIA-H). The mechanisms by which Abeta immunotherapy leads to ARIA remain to be established but may involve overload of the cerebral microvasculature by Abeta released from amyloid plaques.

Background: Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal communications between dural arteries and cortical, meningeal, or dural sinus veins. They represent 10-15% of intracranial arteriovenous malformations. In rare cases, they have been associated with potentially reversible cognitive impairment and dementia.

Infective endocarditis is a life-threatening disease and the early diagnosis is crucial for a better outcome. We report an old adult who developed infective endocarditis in association with new-onset maxillary sinusitis as well as proptosis, which was caused by an orbital mass lesion in the background of pre-existing orbital vascular malformation. A 74-year-old woman was found incidentally to have right orbital vascular (venous) malformation by head magnetic resonance imaging when she was hospitalized for left dorsal pontine infarction.
