Arteriovenous malformations of the brain. A long-term clinical study.

✓ The quality of survival of 150 patients with arteriovenous malformations of the brain is presented. The mean period of follow-up was over 15 years. The surgically operated and conservatively managed groups are compared, a comparison that in the long run appears to favor the operated cases. The results are discussed and indications for surgery summarized.
