Abstract
Pediatric intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are challenging lesions managed by pediatric neurosurgeons. The high risk of hemorrhage and neurologic injury is compounded by the unique anatomy of each malformation that requires individualizing treatment options. This article reviews the current status of pediatric AVM epidemiology, pathophysiology and clinical care, with a specific focus on the rationale and methodology of surgical resection.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society (J Korean Neurosurg Soc) is the official journal of the Korean Neurosurgical Society, and published bimonthly (1st day of January, March, May, July, September, and November). It launched in October 31, 1972 with Volume 1 and Number 1. J Korean Neurosurg Soc aims to allow neurosurgeons from around the world to enrich their knowledge of patient management, education, and clinical or experimental research, and hence their professionalism. This journal publishes Laboratory Investigations, Clinical Articles, Review Articles, Case Reports, Technical Notes, and Letters to the Editor. Our field of interest involves clinical neurosurgery (cerebrovascular disease, neuro-oncology, skull base neurosurgery, spine, pediatric neurosurgery, functional neurosurgery, epilepsy, neuro-trauma, and peripheral nerve disease) and laboratory work in neuroscience.
