Approximately 50% are located in the craniofacial region with those in the head and neck region being far less common than the intracranial AVMs. [1], [2] Magnetic resonance imaging is considered as the gold standard for workup of a malformation [6] and [amhsjournal.org]

As to the etiology of the AVM in this instance, there was a concern prior to hysterectomy for an AVM. Given the eventual diagnosis of arteriovenous fistula, this idea was again examined. [gynecology-obstetrics.imedpub.com]

No common etiological factors for the disease were found, which makes it very difficult to understand how the two disease processes occurred together in our patient. [frontiersin.org]

Etiology of the hemorrhage was deemed to be cryptogenic. A month later she improved to modified Rankin Scale (mRS) of 0. Three months later, she presented again with left sided weakness. [neurology.org]

Etiology The etiology of vascular malformations of the spinal cord has not been clearly defined. Intradural parenchymal malformations arise in a younger patient population and are believed to be congenital. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Managing high blood pressure, avoiding medications that thin the blood, and keeping regular appointments with a neurologist can also help monitor your condition and prevent complications. [healthline.com]

During the operation, the doctors clipped the aneurysms and excised AVM to prevent further bleeding. [deccanchronicle.com]

This blocks blood flow from entering into the aneurysm, preventing future rupture. [massgeneral.org]

Treatment Accurate diagnosis of PAVMs followed by prompt intervention is essential to close the abnormal connection and prevent potentially serious complications. [medstargeorgetown.org]

Some arteriovenous malformations require treatment to prevent compression of nearby organs or to manage bleeding. For others, our doctors recommend monitoring without immediate treatment, called watchful waiting. [nyulangone.org]
