✓ A patient is reported with a purely pial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) supplied from the posterior parietal artery. The prominent middle meningeal artery contributed to opacification of the angular branches distal to the AVM, but did not contribute to the AVM. After total removal of the AVM, the angular branches became opacified from the middle cerebral artery. Review of the literature suggests that hypertrophied dural arteries which do not contribute to the AVM's but which do opacify the cortical branches distal to the AVM's are rare.

✓ An operative technique for total removal of large global meningiomas at the medial aspect of the sphenoid ridge is described, and experience with 11 patients reported. The technique involves extradural liberation of the dural and tumor attachments to the underlying bone, and extradural occlusion of the blood supply through bone and middle meningeal artery. Subsequent procedures are carried out sequentially in the parasellar area to free the optic nerve and carotid, in the subtemporal tentorial region to release tumor from neighboring structures, and in the Sylvian fissure to isolate the middle cerebral artery.

✓ The technique of catheterization and embolization of the lateral and medial lenticulostriate arteries, using one or two balloon catheters of various designs, is described. A case of a bilateral thalamic arteriovenous malformation is presented and a further instance of an aneurysm of a striate artery is briefly discussed. Because of the high probability of proximal middle cerebral artery (MCA) thrombosis, care must be taken to determine tolerance to MCA occlusion prior to embolization.

✓ The authors describe the case of a 69-year-old man with an intracerebral hemorrhage due to rupture of a nontraumatic aneurysm of the middle meningeal artery (MMA). The ipsilateral posterior cerebral artery (PCA) was occluded, and dural anastomoses developed as the main collateral pathway between the MMA and the cortical branch of the PCA, on which the aneurysm was located. It is considered that increased hemodynamic stress to the collateral pathway contributed to the formation of the aneurysm.

✓ A patient harboring a cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) underwent angiography in an attempt to embolize the AVM. During catheterization (and prior to embolization) he became hemiplegic and aphasia Angiography revealed a complete middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion by an embolus. The patient was treated with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), a thrombolytic agent. Restoration of MCA flow was achieved, and the patient recovered. Immediately after MCA embolus, t-PA infusion may lead to thrombolysis and neurological recovery. The decision-making process as well as the risks associated with the use of t-PA are discussed.
