Preface
Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are rare and formidable lesions. The prevalence of AVMs in modern radiographic series is only about 0.2%. The prevalen...

Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas: Epidemiology and Clinical Presentation
24 October 2011
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are relatively rare lesions consisting of anomalous connections between dural arteries and venous sinuses and/or cortical veins. Their clinical presen...

Selection of Treatment Modalities or Observation of Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas
24 October 2011
Cranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) represent an important class of cranial vascular lesions. The clinical significance of these lesions is highly dependent on the pattern of venous drainage,...
