AI Article Synopsis

  • The transvenous method for treating cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVM) is complex but can lead to high cure rates with proper blood pressure management.
  • A 55-year-old male with an aneurysm and cerebral AVM underwent a two-stage surgery involving aneurysm embolization and AVM embolization, during which rapid ventricular pacing (RVP) was utilized.
  • RVP was found to create a stable blood flow environment, making it an effective technique for the embolization of cerebral AVM in surgical procedures.*

Article Abstract

Background: The transvenous approach to the treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is difficult and requires strict blood pressure and blood flow control; however, the cure rate is very high. Appropriate blood pressure control techniques can greatly benefit these patients.

Case: A 55-year-old male patient was found to have an aneurysm complicated with a cerebral AVM (length: 2.0 cm, width: 1.6 cm, height: 1.2 cm). Aneurysm embolization was considered for the first-stage surgery and transvenous arteriovenous malformation embolization for the second-stage surgery. Rapid ventricular pacing (RVP) provided a stable blood flow environment for the surgery, which was completed successfully.

Conclusion: RVP can thus provide an ideal condition for the embolization of cerebral AVM through the transvenous approach and can be a viable surgical option.
