Interhemispheric gravity-assisted approach for microsurgical resection of a splenium arteriovenous malformation
Abstract
The parietal interhemispheric approach employing gravity retraction with skeletonization of bridging veins provides an excellent operative window for safe, curative resection of splenial arteriovenous malformations.
What are some operative techniques that can be employed for the safe, curative resection of splenial arteriovenous malformations? The parietal interhemispheric approach employing gravity retraction with skeletonization of bridging veins provides an excellent operative window for microsurgical resection of these lesion (Figure 1, Video S1).1
