Abstract
Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation is one of important pediatric arteriovenous shunt diseases, especially among neonates and infants. Here, early history of the disease identification, basic pathoanatomy with a focus on the embryonic median prosencephalic vein, classification and differential diagnoses, and recent genetic studies are reviewed.
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.
