About the offer

Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) surgery is a procedure that removes abnormal connections between arteries and veins in the brain. The open surgery aimed to remove the AVMs, which can cause headaches, seizures, or neurology problems. They can also lead to severe problems like bleeding or a stroke. AVM surgery is an option for people with painful or high-risk AVMs, considering the AVM's size, location, and overall health. The decision to have surgery is made on a case-by-case basis with the help of a team of specialists, such as a neurosurgeon and an anesthesiologist. The procedure starts with preoperative evaluations, such as a clinical history, a review of the patient's medical records, a physical exam, and lab tests to check their health and see if they are ready for surgery. A neurological exam, CTA angiography, and histopathological exam confirm the diagnosis and the treatment plan. AVM open surgery is done while under general anesthesia. The neurosurgeon enters the brain through a craniotomy, dissecting and removing the AVM while saving surrounding tissue and closing the surgical site. Postoperative care involves monitoring in an intensive care unit, administering medications for pain management, and preventing complications. Further recommendations are made for a successful recovery process.
