Purpose/Objective (s) To evaluate the obliteration rate and potential adverse effects of single-
fraction proton beam stereotactic radiosurgery (PSRS) in patients with cerebral …

BACKGROUND: Volume reduction of large AVMs attained with endovascular embolization
can be potentially helpful for their subsequent radiosurgical management. The objective of …

Objective. To test a new hypothesis that the glue/contrast admixture used for embolisation
reduces the dose delivered to AVMs using an experimental model. Method. A model was …

OBJECTIVE: To study the results after fractionated radiotherapy of large arteriovenous
malformations (AVMs). METHODS: Twenty-eight patients harboring large AVMs were …

Gamma knife radiosurgery is an attractive noninvasive treatment of brain tumors and
vascular malformations that minimizes collateral tissue damage. However, exposure of …

Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) has long been used for treating brain vascular
malformations, including arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), dural arteriovenous fistulas …

METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted by searching electronic
databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library, up to January 2023. All …

The management of brainstem arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are one of the greatest
challenges encountered by neurosurgeons. Brainstem AVM have a higher risk of …

Minimizing radiation-induced normal tissue damage in the central nervous system (CNS) is
a key objective and primary impetus for stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy. The …

Purpose: We investigate patient outcome, risk of hemorrhage, and factors affecting
obliteration after LINAC-based radiosurgery (RS) for cerebral arteriovenous malformations …
