Mar 1st, 2021 - Intra-arterial Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) is the gold standard technique for radiosurgery target delineation in brain Arterio-Venous Malformations (AVMs). This study aims to evaluate whether a combination of three Magnetic Resonance Ang...

Feb 25th, 2021 - Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a common cause of morbidity among patients supported by left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). The aim of this study was to identify if pre-LVAD right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is associated with risk of GIB...

Feb 24th, 2021 - Diffuse pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are defined as arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) involving subsegmental, segmental, or both types of arteries in at least 1 lung lobe and are more extensive than multiple PAVMs. Diffuse PAVMs ...

Feb 23rd, 2021 - We report a case of cardiac intramural arteriovenous malformations misdiagnosed as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and presented as life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia storm which was successfully controlled by cardiac sympathetic denervation. A 4...

Feb 22nd, 2021 - The treatment of high-grade arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) remains challenging. Microsurgery provides a rapid and complete occlusion compared to other options, but is associated with undesirable morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study w...

Nov 16th, 2017 - Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are structurally abnormal vascular communications that provide a continuous right-to-left shunt between pulmonary arteries and veins. Their importance stems from the risks they pose (>1 in 4 patients w...

Jun 25th, 2009 - HHT is an autosomal dominant disease with an estimated prevalence of at least 1/5000 which can frequently be complicated by the presence of clinically significant arteriovenous malformations in the brain, lung, gastrointestinal tract and liver. HH...

Apr 8th, 2019 - Angiotensin II antagonists may help prevent GI bleeding among heart failure patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (LVADs), a retrospective study suggested. Taking ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) at an...

Dec 5th, 2018 - Two companies now owned by Medtronic have agreed to pay a total of $31 million to resolve US Department of Justice (DOJ) charges involving marketing violations and kickback schemes. Medical device maker ev3 has agreed to plead guilty to charges re...

May 9th, 2018 - The most common cause of atraumatic hemorrhage into the subarachnoid space is rupture of an intracranial aneurysm. Aneurysms are focal dilatations of arteries, with the most frequently encountered intracranial type being the berry (saccular) aneur...

Jan 4th, 2018 - Action Points Note that this observational study found a high rate of KRAS mutations in tissue samples of brain arteriovenous malformations. Be aware that these mutations were not detected in peripheral blood, suggesting they are acquired at some ...
