Unruptured Arteriovenous Malformations of Brain: An overview

Arteriovenous malformations are congenital lesions that occur most commonly in the supratentorial region. These space-occupying vascular lesions consist of multiple arteries and veins, connecting as a fistula without an intervening normal capillary bed. Typically, AVM’s are single lesions, except when associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. The histology includes clusters of normal or dilated arteries and abnormal veins with calcification and occasionally some prior haemorrhage

Updates in the Field of Submucosal Endoscopy

Submucosal endoscopy (third-space endoscopy) can be defined as an endoscopic procedure performed in the submucosal space. This procedure is novel and has been utilized for delivery to the submucosal space in a variety of gastrointestinal diseases, such as a tumor, achalasia, gastroparesis, and subepithelial tumors. The main submucosal endoscopy includes peroral endoscopic myotomy, gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy, Zenker peroral endoscopic myotomy, submucosal tunneling for endoscopic resection, and endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection. Submucosal endoscopy has been used as a viable alternative to surgical techniques because it is minimally invasive in the treatment and diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases and disorders. However, there is limited evidence to prove this. This article reviews the current applications and evidence regarding submucosal endoscopy while exploring the possible future clinical applications in this field. As our understanding of these procedures improves, the future of submucosal endoscopy could be promising in the fields of diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy
