The Role of Focal Therapy for ARUBA-Eligible Patients
- Event: 8th International Conference of the Novalis Circle 2018
- Topic: Vascular radiosurgery
- Year: 2018
Howard Riina, MD, Neurosurgeon at the New York University Langone Medical Center discusses the role of focal therapy—resection, endovascular embolization, stereotactic radiosurgery—for ARUBA-eligible patients, meaning that they have an unruptured arteriovenous malformation. He begins by mentioning that A Randomized Trial of Unruptured Brain Arteriovenous Malformations (ARUBA), which asked the question: “Is medical management alone superior to medical management with intervention for unruptured brain AVMs?”, affected the way these patients are treated. He then provides an overview of the trial, the controversy surrounding it, and its conclusions. He then relates focal therapy to the treatment of unruptured AVMs and states his conclusions.
