AbstractIn AVM surgery perioperative complications can arise and can have serious perioperative consequences. Surgically related complications in AVM treatment, in many cases, can be avoided by paying attention to details:1. Careful selection of the patient: - addressing a patient with eloquent AVM to Gamma Knife treatment - preoperative treatment with selective embolization of the accessible deep feeders - preoperative gamma knife or embolize those patient with an over-expressed venous pattern2. Meticulous coagulation of deep medullary feeders: - Using dirty coagulation - Using dry non-stick coagulation - Using micro clips - Using laser - Reaching the choroidal vessel in the ventricle when possible - Avoiding occlusive coagulation with hemostatic agents3. Check and avoiding any residual of the AVM4. Keep the patient under pressure control during postoperative periodFulfilling these steps contributes to reduce complications in this difficult surgery, leading to a safer treatment that compares favorably with natural history of brain arteriovenous malformations.
