Abstract

Results of treatment of 92 supratentorial and 19 infratentorial cerebral arteriovenous malformations from a 10 year period are discussed. The role of interventional embolization is emphasized. The results seems comparable to major international centres. Danish incidence evaluations indicate that it will be possible to gain further experience and thus better results by centralizing the treatment of larger arteriovenous malformations.
