  • Title: Cerebral arterio-venous malformations hemodynamics changes in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia - case report.
    Author: Haettel P, Devalckeneer A, Bretzner M, Bourgeois P, Lejeune JP, Reyns N, Aboukais R.
    Journal: Neurochirurgie; 2022 Dec; 68(6):e101-e103. PubMed ID: 35934538.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Spontaneous obliteration of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is a rare phenomenon. Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is a predisposal genetic condition for AVMs development in all organs. CASE ILLUSTRATION: We report the case of a 34 years old woman with HHT family history. After radiosurgical treatment of a symptomatic evolving cerebellar AVM, late control subtracted digital angiography (DSA) demonstrated the complete obliteration of this AVM but also spontaneous obliteration of 3 fronto-parietal AVMs without any hemorrhagic sign on MRI. CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the first report of spontaneous obliteration of multiple and unruptured AVMs in a HTT case.
