Abstract Background Endovascular approaches have been widely applied in patients with brain arterio-venous malformations (AVM). However, little is known regarding the risk factors for complications or predictors of procedure success. Herein, we report our experience regarding the outcomes of endovascular embolization of posterior fossa AVM, focusing on how angioarchitectural and hemodynamic characteristics of the AVM affect the post-intervention outcomes. 17 patients diagnosed with posterior cranial fossa AVM were enrolled and scheduled for endovascular interventions by Onyx or Histoacryl. Results Most patients had a single session (58.8%), while 29.4% had two sessions, 11.7% had three sessions. Total nidus obliteration was achieved in 52.9% of cases, while 35.3% and 11.8% of them had subtotal and partial occlusion, respectively. Postprocedural hematoma was encountered in 17.6% of cases. All preprocedural demographic characteristics did not have a significant impact on occlusion outcomes. However, some angioarchitecture criteria were associated with partial occlusion including large size, superficial or mixed drainage. No significant association was noted between patients criteria and the incidence of complications. Conclusion Endovascular interventions could be curative for brain AVM, with an accepted periprocedural morbidity rate. Proper knowledge of the angioarchitectural characteristics of these lesions could help us to predict lesions that carry high risk for complications or high chance for cure. |
