| الوصف: | OBJECTIVE: Microsurgical resection of medial temporal brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is typically conducted through 2 approaches: the orbitozygomatic-tangential and subtemporal-transcortical. Relative indications and outcomes for these techniques have not been formally compared. METHODS: The cerebrovascular database of a quaternary center was reviewed for patients with medial temporal AVMs treated between January 1, 1997, and July 31, 2021. Demographic characteristics, lesion characteristics, surgical approaches, and outcomes were retrospectively analyzed and compared. Postoperative outcome testing was performed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment and Global Quality of Life Scale. RESULTS: Fifty-nine patients were assessed. Mean (standard deviation) age was 31 (18) years; 30 (51%) patients were male. Of the AVMs, 29 (49%) were left-sided and 30 (51%) were right-sided. The tangential approach was selected in 20 (34%) cases, whereas the transcortical technique was preferred in 39 (66%). Improved modified Rankin Scale status was significantly associated with the tangential resection technique both in the early postoperative period (P = 0.02) and at last follow-up (P = 0.01). Differences between the tangential and transcortical approaches were not significant with respect to new postoperative deficits (5/20 [25%] vs. 12/39 [31%], P = 0.87) or the presence of residual AVM on follow-up angiography (1/20 [6%] vs. 5/39 [14%], P = 0.65). CONCLUSIONS: The orbitozygomatic-tangential strategy was associated with favorable functional and quality-of-life outcomes after medial temporal AVM resection. These benefits are likely to be attributable to minimization of temporal retraction, avoidance of brain transgression, and avoidance of traction on the vein of Labbé, rendering the orbitozygomatic-tangential approach the preferred option for cases that are anatomically amenable to either strategy. |
