Abstract:
Stereotactic radiosurgery is an important treatment option for arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and hemorrhagic cavernous malformations. Radiosurgery is effective in obliterating AVMs and preventing rebleeding of cavernous malformations with two or more hemorrhagic episodes. Outcome analyses of radiosurgery for these vascular malformations have provided important information to improve the safety and effectiveness of radiosurgical treatment.
