Treatment of Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs) with Gamma Knife Stereotactic Radiosurgery (GKSRS)

Abstract

Intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are most commonly discovered in young adults as a result of hemorrhage or seizure. Vast majority of these hemorrhages carry significant mortality. We report a case of 27 years old man who presented with left para atrial hemorrhage from an AV malformation. He underwent GKSRS and a year later, was found to be entirely recovered.
