Patient Story: Brain AVM Treatment (Albania)
A patient from Albania traveled to Istanbul to seek treatment for arteriovenous malformation (AVM) at Dr. Kamran Aghayev’s clinic.
A patient from Albania traveled to Istanbul to seek treatment for arteriovenous malformation (AVM) at Dr. Kamran Aghayev’s clinic. AVM is a rare condition in which abnormal connections between arteries and veins disrupt normal blood flow, causing symptoms such as severe headaches, dizziness, seizures, and, in some cases, life-threatening bleeding in the brain.
After a comprehensive evaluation, Dr. Aghayev recommended surgical intervention to remove the AVM and restore normal blood flow. AVM surgery demands precision due to the delicate nature of the abnormal blood vessels and their proximity to critical brain structures. The procedure was performed, and the patient later returned to a healthy and active life, free from the debilitating symptoms described in the original story.
