Abstract

Vascular malformations of the brain are complex in nature and may be classified into various subcategories inclusive of arteriovenous malformations, venous angiomas, angiographically occult vascular malformations, dural AVMs, vein of Galen malformations, and carotid-cavernous fistulas Symptoms, treatments, behaviors, and fatality levels in respect to surgery vary in correlation with the essence of the vascular malformation being considered. Vascular malformations are not only unique in their disposition, but also in their ability to involve multiple areas of medicine. While such malformations only affect a small portion of the population, they are significant to the general understanding of neurosurgery as well as vascular medicine.
