Abstract:
:The most common presentation of a pial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The peak incidence of ICH is early in the third decade of life. This article discusses the management of ICH of unknown etiology, ICH from angiographically visible AVM, and ICH from angiographically occult vascular malformations based on the current understanding of the natural history of these disease entities.

杂志文章,评审abstract::For nearly a century, neurosurgeons have been involved in the use of therapeutic radiation. Long before there was a separate discipline of radiology or radiation therapy, pioneers such as Cushing and Frasier explored the effects of X-rays and radium on patients with brain tumors and arteriovenous malformations.
