11/152. Surgical technique for the treatment of high-flow arteriovenous malformations of the mandible.The high-flow intraosseous arteriovenous malformation is a problematic vascular lesion which may affect bone and the dentition. Variable clinical presentations of this anomaly have resulted in a gamut of treatment modalities being reported ranging from simple curettage, resection, radiotherapy, sclerosing injections, and various forms of embolization, to immediate replantation of the resected segments. Embolization techniques alone have not been universally successful and have often resulted in rapid development of collaterals from surrounding vessels. Definitive treatment has usually involved complete surgical resection (when feasible) either alone, or in combination with other modalities such as embolization. jaw resection, however, is deforming and leaves a defect often requiring subsequent reconstruction of the hard and soft tissues and replacement of any teeth lost with the resected segment. We report a surgical technique to treat mandibular arteriovenous malformations, which permits ligation of the feeding vessels and provides access allowing for complete removal of the intraosseous lesion. At the same time it not only prevents facial deformity by preserving the mandibular bone and oral soft tissue, but also, and more importantly, may preserve the dentition as well.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
12/152. Endovascular management of a bleeding mandibular arteriovenous malformation by transfemoral venous embolization with NBCA.A 13-year-old boy presented with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) involving the left mandible that bled after intraoral biopsy. The AVM was treated on an emergency basis by primary intravenous delivery of n-butyl cyanoacrylate after transfemoral catheterization, resulting in complete anatomic and clinical cure.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.25keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
13/152. Dieulafoy's disease of the bronchus in association with a paravertebral neurilemoma.Dieulafoy's disease is a vascular anomaly characterized by the presence of a dysplastic artery that is related to an epithelial ulcer. While it is most frequently a GI condition, occurrence in the bronchus has been reported previously in six cases. We present the case of a 51-year-old man with severe hemoptysis and epistaxis. Chest radiographs showed diffuse density in the right base and a mass in the pedicle of T4. The results of bronchoscopy corroborated an active arterial bleeding point in the bronchus of the right middle lobe. A middle and lower lobectomy was performed with resection of the paravertebral mass. The final diagnoses were bronchial Dieulafoy's disease and paravertebral neurilemoma.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.0061990222753188keywords = lower (Clic here for more details about this article) |
14/152. Arteriovenous malformation of the mandible.A recent case of a vascular malvormation involving the mandible prompted the review of this subject. There are less than 80 cases of this rare but serious disease reported in the literature. There is no accepted standard treatment, but recent contributions have improved the safety and effectiveness of therapy.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1.25keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
15/152. Pancreaticobiliary arteriovenous malformation with common bile duct dilation in a patient with hemobilia.Arteriovenous malformation of the pancreas is a very rare entity. We describe a case involving the head of the pancreas associated with progressive hemobilia bleeding from the lower part of the common bile duct. The patient was a 50-year-old man with acute epigastralgia. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography revealed hemobilia and cystic dilation of the common bile duct. angiography demonstrated increased blood volume in the head of the pancreas and early filling of the superior mesenteric and portal veins. abdominal pain and progressive anemia caused by hemobilia required surgical treatment. Histologic examination of the resected specimen revealed marked proliferation of the blood vessels in the pericholedochal area and the exact point of bleeding from the pancreaticobiliary arteriovenous malformation.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.0061990222753188keywords = lower (Clic here for more details about this article) |
16/152. Arteriovenous malformation of the mandible: embolization and direct injection therapy.Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the mandible is a rare entity but one that can be potentially fatal as a result of massive hemorrhage. Traditional treatment involved extensive surgical resection of the mandible. With the advent of improved endovascular techniques, interventional radiology is now the best method to control active hemorrhage and ultimately cure these lesions. The authors describe three cases of successfully treated mandibular AVM by percutaneous and/or endovascular techniques.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1.5keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
17/152. Pseudo-Kaposi sarcoma with arteriovenous malformation.Pseudo-Kaposi sarcoma with vascular malformation (Stewart-Bluefarb syndrome) is an uncommon and important entity characterized by congenital arteriovenous malformation and skin lesions that may resemble Kaposi sarcoma. This is usually seen in the lower limb of young people. We report a case of this syndrome in a 17-year-old boy who had skin lesions on the right leg and foot.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.0061990222753188keywords = lower (Clic here for more details about this article) |
18/152. Congenital pelvic arteriovenous malformation: uncommon symptoms of lower limb venous hypertension.Congenital pelvic arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare and their clinical behavior is quite variable. A case of congenital pelvic AVM manifesting with unusual extrapelvic symptoms of ipsilateral leg pain is described. The causes of symptoms associated with congenital pelvic AVMs are discussed.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.024796089101275keywords = lower (Clic here for more details about this article) |
19/152. Conservative treatment of arteriovenous malformations of the mandible.A modified technique is reported on the treatment of arteriovenous malformations in the mandibular body. The technique consists of highly selected embolization and piecemeal removal of the lesion through burred holes made in the cortex. This way the mandible and the teeth may be saved in selected patients.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1.25keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
20/152. High-flow arteriovenous malformation of the lower extremity: ethanolamine oleate sclerotherapy.We report the case of a young man presenting with high-flow arteriovenous malformation (AVM), in whom percutaneous direct nidus puncture ethanolamine oleate (EO) sclerotherapy was useful in the management of the AVM. To our knowledge, this is the first report of percutaneous trans-nidus EO sclerotherapy for AVM in the extremities. Percutaneous trans-nidus sclerotherapy should be considered as an alternative choice for the management of symptomatic AVM.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.024796089101275keywords = lower (Clic here for more details about this article) |
