“…Se ha planteado que las MC esporádicas, especialmente las asociadas a otra malformación vascular (anomalías del desarrollo venoso), se formarían de novo secundariamente a fenómenos microhemorrágicos resultantes de fluctuaciones de la presión venosa local en lechos vasculares anormalmente más frágiles, que inducirían alteraciones hemodinámicas locales mediadas por numerosos factores angiogénicos promotores de la formación reactiva y coalescencia de nuevos vasos. Alternativamente, cambios hemodinámicos tales como restricciones al drenaje venoso local y apertura de conexiones (shunts) arteriovenosas preexistentes, favorecerían su crecimiento (13) .…”

Las malformaciones cavernosas (MC) son hamartomas vasculares de aspecto mamelonado, inicialmente descritos por Rudolf Virchow en 1863, que forman parte de una de las cuatro malformaciones vasculares del sistema nervioso central (SNC), descritas por Russel y Rubinstein (1). Conocidas también como cavernomas, angiomas cavernosos y otras denominaciones, son lesiones caracterizadas por la presencia de espacios sinusoidales recubiertos de endotelio, conteniendo restos hemáticos en diferentes estadios de degradación, marginadas por una pseudocápsula de tejido gliótico cargado de hemosiderina. Entre estas cavidades típicamente no existe parénquima cerebral (1) .

Anterior cranial fossa dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) represent 6% of all intracranial DAVFs and have a high risk of intracranial hemorrhage. To analyze the clinical characteristics and microsurgery treatment of anterior cranial fossa DAVFs, a retrospective review of 21 patients with anterior cranial fossa DAVFs undergoing microsurgery was performed, including 8 bleeding patients and 13 non-bleeding patients. The Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores were used to evaluate the conscious states of 8 bleeding patients before and after operation. All patients had no obvious complications and the clinical symptoms were improved after operation. No abnormal fistulas and drainage veins were detected by digital subtraction angiography postoperatively. The GCS scores of 8 bleeding patients showed that the conscious states became better than pre-operation. Of the 21 patients, 9 patients were followed up without recurrence. Taken together, microsurgery is an effective method for the treatment of anterior cranial fossa DAVFs and it is very important for the improvement of bleeding patients’ conscious states.

BackgroundSome studies reported that cerebral developmental venous anomaly (DVA) is often concurrent with cavernous malformation (CM). But there is lack of statistical evidence and study of bulk cases. The factors associated with concurrency are still unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of concomitant DVA and CM using observational data on Chinese patients and analyze the factors associated with the concurrency.MethodsThe records of all cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed between January 2001 and December 2012 in Beijing Tiantan Hospital were reviewed retrospectively. The DVA and CM cases were selected according to imaging reports that met diagnostic criteria. Statistical analysis was performed using the Pearson chi-square statistic for binary variables and multivariable logistic regression analysis for predictors associated with the concurrent CM.ResultsWe reviewed a total of 165,230 cranial MR images performed during the previous 12 year period, and identified 1,839 cases that met DVA radiographic criteria. There were 205 patients who presented concomitant CM among the 1,839 DVAs. The CM prevalence in DVA cases (11.1%) was significantly higher than that in the non-DVA cases (2.3%) (P<0.01). In the multivariate analysis, we found that DVAs with three or more medullary veins in the same MRI section (adjusted OR = 2.37, 95% CI: 1.73-3.24), infratentorial DVAs (adjusted OR = 1.71, 95% CI: 1.26-2.33) and multiple DVAs (adjusted OR = 2.08, 95% CI: 1.04-4.16) have a higher likelihood of being concomitant with CM.ConclusionsCM are prone to coexisting with DVA. There is a higher chance of concurrent CM with DVA when the DVA has three or more medullary veins in the same MRI scanning section, when the DVA is infratentorial, and when there are multiple DVAs. When diagnosing DVA cases, physicians should be alerted to the possibility of concurrent CM.
