Abstract

Epileptic seizures are prevalent in people with brain vascular abnormalities like arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and cavernous malformations, greatly affecting their quality of life. The connection between intracranial vascular abnormalities and epilepsy is still under debate. Therefore, investigating epilepsy in individuals with AVMs is a crucial and current research area. This review presents a comprehensive examination of recent developments in epilepsy among individuals with brain AVMs. The authors conducted a detailed analysis of the natural progression, epidemiology, diagnostic methods, therapeutic approaches, and post-treatment outcomes for individuals with epilepsy associated with AVMs.
