Nationwide Treatment Survey of Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformation in China (NTSIAVMC)

March 1, 2013 updated by: Dr. Yong Cao

A Nationwide Treatment Survey of Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformation: a Multicenter Retrospective and Prospective Register Study in China

This register study will collect the treatment information of the intracranial arteriovenous malformation patients in China. We aim to understand the current treatment situation of the disease in China.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Detailed Description

Intracranial arteriovenous malformations are congenital lesions that consist of multiple arteries and veins, connecting as a fistula without intervening normal capillary bed. The treatment strategy including surgical removal, endovascular embolism and stereotaxic radiosurgery and comprehensive treatment. China is a united multi-ethnic nation of 56 ethnic groups, and has the largest population in the world. We have most extensive and valuable clinical resources of intracranial arteriovenous malformation in the world. But we know little about the current treatment situation of the disease in China.

In order to realize the treatment situation of intracranial arteriovenous malformation in China, we designed a retrospective and prospective register study to collect the treatment and outcome information all over China.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Surgical treatment
Surgical resection of intracranial arteriovenous malformations.
Stereotaxic radiosurgery
Deliver a relatively high dose of focused radiation precisely to the arteriovenous malformations.
Endovascular treatment
Deliver embolic materials to the feeding arteries or the nidus by microcatheters
Comprehensive treatment
Use two or three methods ( Surgical treatment stereotaxic radiosurgery endovascular treatment ) to cure the intracranial arteriovenous malformations
Conservative treatment
Patients refused to any of the treatment above
