Abstract

Despite the availability of multimodal treatment options, some arteriovenous malformations remain difficult to treat, either for intrinsic reasons at initial presentation or for reasons evolving during the course of treatment. Frequently, such cases can be easily resolved with further therapy, but some become a continuously growing treatment dilemma while exhausting dwindling therapeutic options.
