The authors estimated the influence of proton-beam stereotaxic therapy on a course of epileptic fits in cerebral arteriovenous aneurysms (AVA). A stable disappearance of epileptic fits was noted in 16 of 29 patients (56%), in 12 of them (41%) positive angiography results were noted. The calculated D and V fields of irradiation for 16 patients without fits and for 13 patients with epileptic fits after proton-beam stereotaxic therapy have shown that with D being the same, the effect depends upon a fraction of an AVA irradiated area.

D002538 Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations Congenital vascular anomalies in the brain characterized by direct communication between an artery and a vein without passing through the CAPILLARIES. The locations and size of the shunts determine the symptoms including HEADACHES; SEIZURES; STROKE; INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES; mass effect; and vascular steal effect.

D004827 Epilepsy A disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of paroxysmal brain dysfunction due to a sudden, disorderly, and excessive neuronal discharge. Epilepsy classification systems are generally based upon: (1) clinical features of the seizure episodes (e.g., motor seizure), (2) etiology (e.g., post-traumatic), (3) anatomic site of seizure origin (e.g., frontal lobe seizure), (4) tendency to spread to other structures in the brain, and (5) temporal patterns (e.g., nocturnal epilepsy).
