Abstract
Over the past 10 years, written contributions on cerebral arteriovenous malformations (CAVM) in children have evolved from anecdotal case reports to short series, offering a better understanding of the disease, the therapeutic strategies and the results of various managements (Ventureyra 1987; Gerosa 1981; Fond 1988; Hoffman 1982; Johnston 1987; Lasjaunias 1995–1996; Maheut 1987; Mori 1980; So 1978; Raimondi 1987; Seidenwurm 1991). Historical contributions from the neurosurgical point of view have demonstrated limitations in the management of these difficult lesions and relinquished them to interventional neuroradiology.
