摘要
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Although stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has well defined outcomes in the management of smaller-volume arteriovenous malformations (AVM), this report evaluates the outcomes when SRS is used for large-volume (>= 10 cc) lobar AVMs.METHODS:Between 1990 and 2022, a cohort of 1325 patients underwent Leksell Gamma Knife SRS for brain AVMs. Among these, 40 patients (25 women; median age: 37 years) with large lobar AVMs underwent volume-staged SRS followed by additional SRS procedures if needed (2-5 procedures). The patients presented with diverse AVM locations and Spetzler-Martin Grades. Before SRS, 16 patients underwent a total of 43 embolization procedures.RESULTS:Over a median follow-up of 73 months, 20 patients achieved AVM obliteration. The 3, 5, and 10-year obliteration rates were 9.3%, 15.3%, and 53.3%, respectively. During the latency interval between the first SRS procedure and the last follow-up, 11 patients had intracerebral hemorrhages (ICH) and 6 developed new neurological deficits unrelated to ICH. The postoperative hemorrhage risk after the first SRS was 13.8% at 3 years, 16.6% at 5 years, and 36.2% at 10 years. No hemorrhagic event was documented after confirmed obliteration. Compared with the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores before SRS, the mRS improved or remained stable in 28 patients. Nine patients died during the observation interval. Five were related to ICH.CONCLUSION:These outcomes underscore both the potential effectiveness and the limitations of multistage SRS procedures for complex high-risk large volume AVMs in critical brain lobar locations. Most patients retained either stable or improved long-term mRS scores. During the latency interval from the first SRS until obliteration, achieved after two or more procedures, the risk of hemorrhage and treatment-related complications persists.
