放射外科治疗遗传性出血性毛细血管扩张症脑动静脉畸形

摘要

cqvip:The authors evaluated the efficacy of radiosurgery (RS) for cerebral arteriovenous malformations in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT AVMs). Two patients with seven HHT AVMs were treated by linear accelerator RS. Complete obliteration was achieved 18 to 24 months post treatment without side effects. Because HHT AVMs are small and multiple, RS is superior to microsurgery because it is noninvasive and all AVMs can be treated in one session regardless of their location.
