Abstract
Background Brain Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs) located in proximity to eloquent brain regions are associated with poor surgical outcomes, which may be due to higher rates of postoperative neurological deterioration. Current treatment protocols include stereotactic radiosurgery, transarterial embolization, and surgical resection under general anesthesia. Awake Craniotomy (AC) allows intraoperative mapping of eloquent areas to improve post-operative neurologic outcomes. Objectives We reviewed the current literature reporting surgical outcomes and assessed the feasibility of AC for AVM resection. Methods The PRISMA guidelines were utilized as a template for the review. Three databases including PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library were searched using a predefined search strategy. After removing duplicates and screening, full texts were analyzed. Outcomes including the extent of resection, intra-operative and post-operative complications, and long-term neurologic outcomes were assessed. Results 12 studies were included with a total of 122 AVM cases. Spetzler-Martin grading was used for the classification of the AVMs. The asleep-awake-asleep protocol was most commonly used for AC. Complete resection was achieved in all cases except 5. Intraoperative complications included seizures (n = 2) and bleeding (n = 4). Short-term post-operative complications included hemorrhage (n = 3), neurologic dysfunctions including paresis (n = 3), hemiplegia (n = 10), dysphasia/aphasia (n = 6), cranial nerve dysfunction (n = 3), and pulmonary embolism (n = 1). Almost all neurological deficits after surgery gradually improved on subsequent follow-ups. Conclusion AVMs may shift the anatomical location of eloquent brain areas which may be mapped during AC. All studies recommended AC for the resection of AVMs in close proximity to eloquent areas as mapping during AC identifies the eloquent cortex thus promoting careful tissue handling which may preserve neurologic function and/or predict the postoperative functional status of the patients We, therefore, conclude that AC is a viable modality for AVMs resection near eloquent language and motor areas.

Re-rupture in ruptured brain arteriovenous malformations: a retrospective cohort study based on a nationwide multicenter prospective registry. J Neurointerv Surg 2023:jnis-2023-020650.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the natural history of re-rupture in ruptured brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and to provide comprehensive insights into its associated factors and prevention. METHODS This study included 1712 eligible ruptured AVMs from a nationwide multicenter prospective collaboration registry between August 2011 and September 2021. The natural rupture risk before intervention and the annual rupture risk after intervention were both assessed. Cox proportional hazard regression models and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to explore independent factors associated with AVM re-rupture. The correlation between these factors and AVM re-rupture was verified in multiple independent cohorts, and the prevention effect of intervention timing and intervention strategies on AVM re-rupture was further analyzed. RESULTS The annual re-rupture risk in ruptured AVMs was 7.6%, and the cumulative re-rupture risk in the first 1, 3, 5, and 10 years following the initial rupture were 10%, 25%, 37.5%, and 50%, respectively. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis confirmed adult patients, ventricular system involvement, and any deep venous drainage as independent factors associated with AVM re-rupture. The intervention was found to significantly reduce the risk of AVM re-rupture (annual rupture risk 11.34% vs 1.70%, p<0.001), especially in those who underwent surgical resection (annual rupture risk 0.13%). CONCLUSIONS The risk of re-rupture in ruptured AVMs is high. Adult patients, ventricular system involvement, and any deep venous drainage are independent risk factors for re-rupture. Applying the results universally to all ruptured AVM cases may be biased. Intervention could effectively reduce the risk of re-rupture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The best therapeutic option for unruptured brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) patients is disputed. OBJECTIVE To assess the occurrence of obliteration and complications of patients with unruptured bAVMs after various treatments. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and so on to identify studies fulfilling predefined inclusion criteria. Baseline, treatment, and outcomes data were extracted for statistical analysis. RESULTS We identified 28 eligible studies totaling 5852 patients. The obliteration rates were 98% in microsurgery group (95% confidence interval (CI): 96%-99%, I2 = 74.5%), 97% in surgery group (95%CI: 95%-99%, I2 = 18.3%), 87% in endovascular treatment group (95%CI: 80%-93%, I2 = 0.0%), and 68% in radiosurgery group (95%CI: 66%-69%, I2 = 92.0%). The stroke or death rates were 1% in microsurgery group (95%CI: 0%-2%, I2 = 0.0%), 0% in surgery group (95%CI: 0%-1%, I2 = 0.0%), 4% in endovascular treatment group (95%CI: 0%-8%, I2 = 85.8%), and 3% in radiosurgery group (95%CI: 3%-4%, I2 = 82.9%). In addition, the proportions of hemorrhage were 2% in microsurgery group (95%CI: 1%-4%, I2 = 0.0%), 23% in endovascular treatment group (95%CI: 7%-39%), and 12% in radiosurgery group (95%CI: 12%-13%, I2 = 99.2%). As to neurological deficit, the occurrence was 9% in microsurgery group (95%CI: 6%-11%, I2 = 94.1%), 20% in surgery group (95%CI: 13%-27%, I2 = 0.0%), 14% in endovascular treatment group (95%CI: 10%-18%, I2 = 64.0%), and 8% in radiosurgery group (95%CI: 7%-9%, I2 = 66.6%). CONCLUSIONS We found that microsurgery might provide lasting clinical benefits in some unruptured bAVMs patients for its high obliteration rates and low hemorrhage. These findings are helpful to provide a reference basis for neurosurgeons to choose the treatment of patients with unruptured bAVMs.

One-Stage Treatment in a Hybrid Operation Room to Cure Brain Arteriovenous Malformation: A Single-Center Experience. World Neurosurg 2020; 147:e85-e97. [PMID: 33348099 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2020.11.123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2020] [Revised: 11/20/2020] [Accepted: 11/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report the principles and techniques of using a hybrid operation room in the treatment of brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM). METHODS From October 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018, we treated 54 consecutive patients with nonemergent BAVM in a hybrid operation room. The clinical data, radiologic images, and outcomes were collected to establish a prospective database for evaluation. RESULTS Thirty-two male and 22 female patients were enrolled with a mean age of 32.6 ± 13.1 years (range, 10-61 years). Bleeding (n = 32, 59.3%) was the main clinical presentation, followed by headache (n = 27, 50.0%), seizures (n = 14, 25.9%), neurofunctional deficits (n = 16, 29.6%), and no symptoms (n = 2, 3.7%). Thirty-one patients (57.4%) accepted resection without intraoperative embolization, 18 (33.3%) were treated with combined embolization and resection, and 5 (9.3%) were cured with intraoperative embolization and resection was cancelled. All patients achieved total BAVM obliteration confirmed with intraoperative angiography. There were no significant differences in outcomes between low-grade (Spetzler-Martin grades I, II, and modified grade III-) and high-grade (Spetzler-Martin grades ≥IV and modified grade III+) groups, except that the high-grade group had more blood loss (667.9 ± 647.5 vs. 284.3 ± 148.6 mL; P = 0.046) and longer postoperative hospitalization (17.1 ± 9.1 vs. 10.8 ± 5.4 days; P = 0.026). At discharge, 52 patients (96.3%) had favorable outcomes (Glasgow Outcome Scale score ≥4). Forty-three patients (79.6%) received 1 year follow-up after treatment; 97.7% (n = 42) of these had ongoing favorable outcomes. However, 4 patients with low-grade BAVM had recurrence. CONCLUSIONS The hybrid operation room can ensure safe, comprehensive treatment of BAVM, offering the opportunity for a favorable curative treatment in 1 stage.

Abstract
Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are anomalous direct shunts between cerebral arteries and veins that convalesce into a vascular nidus. The treatment strategies for AVMs are challenging and variable. Intracranial hemorrhage and seizures comprise the most common presentations of AVMs. However, incidental AVMs are being diagnosed with increasing frequency due to widespread use of noninvasive neuroimaging. The balance between the estimated cumulative lifetime hemorrhage risk vs the risk of intervention is often the major determinant for treatment. Current management options include surgical resection, embolization, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), and observation. Complete nidal obliteration is the goal of AVM intervention. The risks and benefits of interventions vary and can be used in a combinatorial fashion. Resection of the AVM nidus affords high rates of immediate obliteration, but it is invasive and carries a moderate risk of neurologic morbidity. AVM embolization is minimally invasive, but cure can only be achieved in a minority of lesions. SRS is also minimally invasive and has little immediate morbidity, but AVM obliteration occurs in a delayed fashion, so the patient remains at risk of hemorrhage during the latency period. Whether obliteration can be achieved in unruptured AVMs with a lower risk of stroke or death compared with the natural history of AVMs remains controversial. Over the past 5 years, multicenter prospective and retrospective studies describing AVM natural history and treatment outcomes have been published. This review provides a contemporary and comprehensive discussion of the natural history, pathobiology, and interventions for brain AVMs.

Abstract
Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are complex, heterogeneous, and uncommon intracranial lesions. They can be treated by one or a combination of the following treatment modalities, namely embolization, radiosurgery, or microsurgical resection. In Spetzler-Martin Grade 4 and 5 arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), conservative management may be the best option. A group of experts in the management of AVMs of different disciplines gathered in January 2019 in Hanoi to compile the “Expert Consensus on the Management of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations”.

Venous Stenosis and Hemorrhage After Radiosurgery for Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformations. World Neurosurg 2018; 122:e1615-e1625. [PMID: 30500592 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.11.193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2018] [Revised: 11/19/2018] [Accepted: 11/20/2018] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of hemorrhage remains after radiosurgery for patients with arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), especially during the latency period. The effect of venous outflow stenosis on postradiosurgery AVM hemorrhage has been understudied. The present study sought to clarify the effect of venous stenosis on postradiation hemorrhage. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients with AVM seen at our institution from 1990 to 2015. Patients who had undergone radiosurgery were included, and those without sufficient data were excluded. We performed multivariable Cox regression to evaluate the predictors of postradiosurgery hemorrhage, with specific emphasis on venous stenosis. Patients were censored from the first radiosurgery to hemorrhage or the last follow-up visit. The baseline and angiographic characteristics were compared between those with venous stenosis and those without to address potential confounders. RESULTS The present study included 240 patients, of whom 29 (12.1%) had venous stenosis. The venous stenosis cohort included more patients with venous varices (P = 0.009) and fewer with deep venous drainage (P = 0.048) compared with those without venous stenosis. Most patients had grade III or higher AVMs (63.2%), with an obliteration rate of 32.9%. In an all-inclusive multivariable Cox regression, hemorrhage risk was associated with venous stenosis (hazard ratio [HR], 3.70; P = 0.034), age (HR, 1.05; P = 0.002), AVM volume (HR, 1.04; P = 0.004), and hemorrhage before treatment (HR, 4.11; P = 0.014). Male gender was protective (HR, 0.31; P = 0.036) against hemorrhage. CONCLUSIONS We identified statistically significant risk factors for postradiosurgery AVM hemorrhage, which included advanced age, female gender, the presence of venous stenosis, a larger AVM volume, and previous hemorrhage. We recommend cautious selection of patients for radiosurgery with close follow-up after treatment, especially for patients with these risk factors.
