Continuous hemodynamics monitoring during arteriovenous malformation microsurgical resection with laser speckle contrast imaging: case report.

Project description:AVM surgery is challenging due to progressive and often unforeseeable flow changes during its resection which involve both the AVM and the surrounding brain tissue. Hence, accurate monitoring of blood flow is crucial to minimize complications and improve outcomes. The following case report illustrates the usefulness of complimentary non-invasive tools that can provide real time blood flow assessment. We present a case demonstrating the application of laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) in evaluating vessel flow dynamics during AVM surgery. A 30-year-old female presented with sudden headaches, nausea, vomiting, and vertigo. Emergency imaging revealed a ruptured cerebellar AVM necessitating surgical intervention. LSCI was integrated into the surgical workflow, providing continuous visualization of relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) of vessels surrounding the AVM. Before AVM resection, LSCI measurements revealed the arterialized vasculature supplying the AVM nidus; measurements after AVM resection showed significant hemodynamic changes including normal flow in the initially arterialized AVM draining veins and adjacent arterial branches. LSCI also detected blood flow alterations during temporary occlusion, enabling assessment of downstream vascular regions. In conclusion, we provide an example supporting the utility of LSCI for real-time hemodynamic monitoring during AVM resection surgery. LSCI offers non-invasive, continuous, and immediate blood flow information, complementing conventional imaging methods like indocyanine green angiography. Additionally, our findings suggest that LSCI has the potential to provide a non-invasive means of identifying the specific superficial vessel branches or cortical areas that receive blood supply from a particular vessel.

Interhemispheric transfalcine approach to a medial frontal arteriovenous malformation: operative video with positioning illustrations.

Project description:Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are a complex and challenging subset of neurosurgical disease, the optimal treatment of which is nuanced and dependent on numerous patient- and disease-specific factors. Clinical features that may predispose toward resection as front-line treatment include lower grade lesions, particularly those in non-eloquent locations, as well as active pregnancy. In all AVM resections, minimization of risk to exposed healthy brain adjacent to the lesion is a key surgical principle. In this illustrative case report, we discuss the management of a young woman who presented with a new diagnosis of AVM following an intracranial hemorrhage, at which time she was also identified as newly pregnant. Resection via the contralateral transfalcine approach with preoperative embolization was recommended, the intraoperative and postoperative courses proceeded uneventfully, and the patient was cured of her AVM and went on to successfully deliver twins. Recording and description of procedure are shown in Video Case Report.

Brain Arteriovenous Malformation Recurrence After Apparent Microsurgical Cure: Increased Risk in Children Who Present With Arteriovenous Malformation Rupture.

Project description:Background and purposeDo children have an increased risk for brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) recurrence compared with adults and does this risk vary depending on initial presentation with AVM rupture?MethodsWe retrospectively studied 115 patients initially presenting with brain AVM under age 25 years who underwent complete surgical resection of the AVM as documented by digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and had delayed follow-up DSA to evaluate for AVM recurrence after apparent initial cure.ResultsThe mean time from baseline DSA to follow-up DSA was 2.3 years, ranging from 0 to 15 years. Twelve patients (10.4% of the 115 patient cohort and 16.7% of 72 patients with hemorrhage at initial presentation) demonstrated AVM recurrence on follow-up DSA. All patients with recurrence initially presented with intracranial hemorrhage, and intracranial hemorrhage was a significant predictor of recurrence (log rank P=0.037). Among patients with initial hemorrhage, the 5-year recurrence rate was 17.8% (95% CI, 8.3%-35.7%). All recurrences occurred in patients who were children at the time of their initial presentation; the oldest was 15 years of age at the time of initial AVM surgery. The 5-year recurrence rate for children (0-18 years of age) with an initial presentation of hemorrhage was 21.4% (95% CI, 10.1%-41.9%). Using Cox regression, we found the risk of AVM recurrence decreased by 14% per each year increase in age at the time of initial surgical resection (hazard ratio=0.86 [95% CI, 0.75-0.99]; P=0.031).ConclusionsThere is a high rate of recurrence of apparently cured brain AVMs in children who initially present with AVM rupture. Imaging follow-up is warranted to prevent re-rupture.

Laser-Assisted Vascular Malformation Resection: A Novel Surgical Approach.

Project description:Vascular malformations can be treated using sclerotherapy agents like alcohol, polidocanol, or sodium tetradecyl sulfate foam and embolization treatments. These endovascular treatments may cause severe complications as pulmonary embolism and thrombosis. 980-nm diode lasers (DLs) are common devices used by many specialties as plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and vascular surgeons. Laser energy is excellently absorbed in water and hemoglobin, which makes it ideal for adipose tissue and deep lesions. We treated our patient using a DL. Our surgical approach allowed total excision of the arteriovenous malformation (AVM), which decreased the size of the tumor allowing a smaller incision and eased the dissection plane. We believe that lasers will be used more frequently on AVM treatments.

Resection and Reconstruction of Giant Abdominoscrotal Arteriovenous Malformation.

Project description:Genital arteriovenous malformations are rare and present unique surgical challenges in preserving urogenital function, abdominal wall integrity, and lower limb perfusion. A 32-year-old man with a giant abdominoscrotal arteriovenous malformation presented with recurrent heavy bleeding. Due to the high risk of rebleeding and fatal hemorrhage, surgery with curative intent was proposed and the patient was counseled on the risks of ischemia to the lower limb, testes, and penis. Preoperative embolization of the feeding vessels was performed. Three days later, surgical excision of the mass with the affected scrotum, left rectus muscle, sheath, and overlying abdominal skin followed. The testes were dissected from the malformation and preserved along with the right internal pudendal artery. The left thigh skin was advanced to the scrotal remnants and a neoscrotum created. The resulting large abdominal wall defect was reconstructed in layers with a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap, including innervated vastus lateralis muscle, to prevent herniation. Recovery was uneventful, and a 4-year follow-up revealed no significant clinical or radiological recurrence with recovery of flap sensation, retained erectile function, and no herniation. We report this case due to rarity of giant abdominoscrotal arteriovenous malformations and present preoperative embolization, surgical resection, and functional anterolateral thigh flap reconstruction as a valuable treatment option of this life-threatening illness.

Histone Modification in Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation

Project description:Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are the most common vascular malformations worldwide and the leading cause of hemorrhagic strokes that result in crippling neurological deficits. Here, using newly generated mouse model, we discovered that genome-wide ocuppancy of H4K8ac and H3K27me3 decreased in mouse cerebral AVMs.
