Arm and leg paresis as outcome predictors in stroke rehabilitation.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:The treatment of large brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) is challenging, and embolization alone is seldom curative. The study goal is to enhance the efficacy of arteriovenous malformation embolization by adding a beta-emitting isotope to the embolic agent. METHODS:The pig rete mirabile w...
