Abstract
The surgical approach to cerebral arteriovenous malformations is essential for the treatment of these complex conditions. These intracranial vascular anomalies, characterized by anomalous connections between arteries and veins, can result in brain hemorrhages, seizures, and other debilitating neurological problems. Objectives: Review the various surgical treatment strategies used to address cerebral arteriovenous malformations. Methodology: Data collection was conducted through the following databases: Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), PubMed, Latin American Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS). Various types of publications were consulted, including scientific articles, monographs and magazines, with the aim of obtaining relevant information on the topic. Results and Discussions: The efficacy and safety of surgical strategies to treat cerebral arteriovenous malformations. Although some approaches have demonstrated a high success rate in resolving AVMs, others have been associated with fewer postoperative complications. The importance of a multidisciplinary approach and the need for additional studies to evaluate long-term outcomes are highlighted. In summary, the results and discussion highlight the need for treatment personalization and interdisciplinary collaboration to optimize clinical outcomes.
Conclusion: In conclusion, this article reviewed surgical strategies for the treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations, highlighting the diversity of available approaches and their clinical relevance. It is essential to recognize the importance of personalizing treatment based on the individual characteristics of each patient and interdisciplinary collaboration between healthcare professionals. We hope that this work will contribute to a better understanding and management of these complex conditions, aiming to improve clinical outcomes and quality of life for patients affected by cerebral arteriovenous malformations.
