Abstract
Due to growing understanding of pathophysiological relationships and the continuing progress in the development of endovascular materials, the prevalence, significance, and need of interventional treatment in AVM have continued to increase. This chapter first presents the techniques and materials employed in interventions of AVM. Based on this description, the application of endovascular procedures for vessel occlusion is explained. In this context, particular attention is given to the treatment of peripheral AVM and those in the head and neck region.
