Pediatric brain arteriovenous malformation recurrence: a cohort study, systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusion
Location of infratentorial AVMs and younger age at presentation may be associated with earlier and more frequent recurrences. The higher rates of recurrence in patients with AVMs obliterated with EVT questions its role in an intent-to-cure approach and reinforces its position as an adjunct to surgery and/or radiosurgery.
