Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Accurate estimates of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) risk in patients harboring brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM) are needed to evaluate interventional strategies and to help guide clinical management. Identification of genetic polymorphisms associated with ICH would facilitate risk stratification in BAVM patients. METHODS: We identified patients with BAVM and documented clinical...
