Endovascular embolization treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (report of 54 cases)

Chin Med Sci J. 1995 Jun;10(2):96-9.

Abstract

For further research on endovascular embolization treatment of AVMs, 54 patients with AVMs treated with embolization were observed. It was found that embolization was an effective procedure for the treatment of AVMs. Combined treatment of AVMs with presurgical embolization and direct surgery could reduce the complications resulting from large and high flow AVMs with lone surgical removal.
