Abstract:
Endovascular embolization has increasingly been applied for brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM). With our better understanding of BAVM and the continuous improvement of micro-catheter technology and embolic materials, the therapeutic effectiveness has constantly increased. This paper reviews recent advances in research on BAVM and the application of endovascular embolization.
