Multicenter StudyIs repeated radiosurgery an alternative to staged radiosurgery for very large brain arteriovenous malformations?
The results of a novel radiosurgical approach to treat large arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) with repeated radiosurgery are presented and discussed. ⋯ Repeated radiosurgery seems to be a viable option for some AVMs considered to be too large for conventional radiosurgical treatment. The incidence of posttreatment hemorrhages seems to be a larger clinical problem than radiation-induced complications.
