What is RFA for AVM?
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs), which are abnormal tangles of blood vessels connecting arteries and veins. RFA works by using heat energy to close off or shrink these abnormal vessels, improving blood flow and reducing associated risks such as bleeding or neurological symptoms. It offers a safer, faster, and more effective alternative to open surgery for AVM management.
Who Needs RFA for
arteriovenous
malformations (AVM)?
Who Needs Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)
Patients with AVMs causing symptoms such as headaches, seizures, or neurological deficits.
Individuals with small or deep-seated AVMs that are difficult to treat surgically.
Patients at risk of AVM rupture, leading to hemorrhage or stroke.
Compare Your Treatment Options
RFA (Radiofrequency Ablation)
Minimally invasive, uses heat energy to treat AVMs effectively, ensuring precise targeting with a short recovery time.
AVM Resection
Open surgical procedure to remove AVMs, used for complex cases, with a longer recovery time.
Benefits of AVM
Minimally Invasive:
No need for open surgery.
Quick Recovery:
Most patients resume normal activities within days.
High Success Rate:
Effective for many small-to-moderate-sized AVMs.
Reduced Risks:
Lower chances of infection, blood loss, or complications.
Alternative to Surgery:
Offers a less invasive option for AVM treatment.
How is RFA Performed?
The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia with mild sedation.
Access
A catheter or probe is inserted through a small incision and guided to the AVM.
Ablation
Radiofrequency energy is applied to close off or shrink the abnormal blood vessels.
Completion
The catheter is removed, and the incision is closed.
The entire process takes about 1-3 hours, and most patients are discharged the same day or within 24 hours.
