Treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations in children / 国际脑血管病杂志

Brain arteriovenous malformation (bAVM) is a common cerebrovascular disease in clinical practice. Compared with adults, children with bAVM are more prone to rupture and bleeding, and have a higher mortality and disability. Therefore, it is very important to accurately evaluate the bleeding risk of children with bAVM and reasonably select intervention measures to improve the prognosis. The treatment methods of children with bAVM mainly include conservative treatment, microsurgical treatment, endovascular embolization, stereotactic radiosurgery, and multimodal combined treatment. At present, the treatment indications and specific treatment options for children with bAVM are controversial.
