Overview

THE ARTERIOVENOUS CONNECTION
Overview: This course for neurointerventionalists, cerebrovascular and endovascular neurosurgeons, vascular neurologists, and scientists will begin with an essential anatomic unit in the central nervous system: the connection between arteries and veins. Beginning with embryology and molecular genetics, we will then broaden our view to development in normal and disease states, implications for current treatment approaches, and research directions. Eminent faculty will teach in an informal, interactive format. In addition to lectures, there will be opportunities for one-on-one and small group mentorship as well as time for recreational activities in the lovely venue of Lake Tahoe.

Lecture Session Format: Invited speakers will prepare talks 10-12 minutes in length. Each Session will have an Expert Panel to ask questions of the speakers and foster discussion with audience participation for 8-10 minutes after each talk. At the end of each session there will be a 15-20 minute focused case presentation and discussion highlighting a clinical correlation of one or more of the topics discussed in the session, presented by the chair of the Expert Panel.

Objectives

An attendee completing this course should be able to:

  • Improve endovascular techniques and treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations and fistulas
  • Incorporate the latest evidence in pathology, natural history, and treatment for central nervous system arteriovenous disorders
  • Improve competence in applying advanced techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of arteriovenous fistulas and AVMs including transvenous approaches and novel embolic agents
  • Apply updated anatomical and pathophysiologic knowledge regarding the development of intracranial vasculature and its abnormalities to the understanding of pediatric and adult cerebrovascular disease.

Accreditation

In support of improving patient care, the University of California, San Francisco is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.
