malformations,the latter hemangiomatous lesions.In fact,such a distinc­tion,which was helpful during the past 20 years, has also greatly benefit­ed from recent biological contributions as well as the recognition of shear stress mechanisms in vascular modeling and remodeling.Actually angio­genesis is involved in both so-called malformations and hemangiomas, but they are different in terms of trigger factor (agent),target, and timing (Schemes 2.1,2.2).They will be discussed in the various chapters dealing with brain and maxillofacial AVMs and hemangiomas.
2.3 Vascular Lesion Types and Disease Groups
Many and often confusing classifications have been proposed in the past. The role of coagulation disorders, systemic manifestations, topography, size, eloquence of the involved brain, and extrapolation from experience with adult lesions has led to emphasis being placed on many different aspects, which, in combination with technical advances, tended to focus on certain particular details rather than on an understanding of the problem as a whole. The assumption that AVMs are congenital, the rarity of the disease, the small number of patients in the clinical series report­ed, and the aggregation of various pathologies described in literature reviews further added to this confusion (Govaert 1993; Raimondi 1980; Edwards and Hoffman 1989).
Basic classifications of vascular diseases use pathological, biological, and clinical data. For instance, one should now be able to distinguish AV shunts from venous lesions or malformations.Furthermore one should be able to recognize and differentiate venous variations from malformations. Similarly, one should not label an associated arterial variation or embry­onic persistence a malformation when associated with a CAVM or a giant aneurysm. This distinction is not only of academic interest, but may also have clinical consequences.A true malformation is not an anatomic vari­ant,and the isolated persistence of an embryonic disposition does not give a congenital character to a lesion even if in some cases it is a time marker of an embryonic event,which may not necessarily be related.
When considering vascular lesions in children,one should keep in mind several keys to approaching the questions raised and understanding the clinical expression (phenotypes) of the various diseases involved. Even in an apparently single-disease category such as CAVMs, several entities must be distinguished as their predictable presentation or progression requires different management at different times. The generic name artificially re­grouping different situations expresses the use of a single key (the arteri­ovenous shunt for example) where two or three would reveal the differ­ences: single hole AVF (Yoshida 2004; Weon et al. 2005), familial disorder for HHT (Mahadevan 2004),metameric disease for CAMS (Bhattacharya et al. 2001), proliferative activity for proliferative angiopathy, PHACE (Bhat­tacharya et al. 2004),etc.

The same effects are expected to follow functional blockade of a gene rather than single type of structural alteration in each patient: when the gene involves interactions (ligand), the mutations are multiple; when the gene makes a protein active, the mutations are often identical: lack of stage (protein or mRNA is missing), poor emission of signal or wrong destination (pigmentation), no reception of signal (ligand), insufficient message (too short, too few), hyperactive protein.

Scheme 2.3. Timing of triggering events and phenotypic expressions
Scheme 2.4A. „Age“ of vascular lesions
The following keys can be put forward:
Proliferative or nonproliferative lesionTy pe of disorder (Table2.1):
Monogenetic (surface protein dysfunction, improper collagen
structure, extracellular matrix deficiency), progressive dysfunction (triggered structural defect or failed repair or inadequate mainte­nance systems), extrinsic and acquired damage (infectious, trau­matic) (Scheme 2.1)
Location on the vessel tree:
From the arterial tree to the arterial capillary, venous junction
venules, veins,sinuses,and lymphatics (Scheme 2.2)
Time of occurrence:
–Germinal mutation transmitted, early somatic mutation,early stage
metamerically arranged defect, fetal failed signaling, postnatal mutation, failed remodeling during vascular renewal (Scheme 2.3)
Time of revelation:
In utero, fetal period, neonatal, infancy prior to 2 years of age,
2–6 years,and after 6 years (Scheme2.4)
Clinical evolution and natural history:
Permanent increase in flow, arterial occlusion, spontaneous throm-
bosis (see Chap. 7,this volume).
Secondary effects on the maturing or remaining vasculature:High-flow angiopathy, jugular bulb maturation, cerebral vein opening
into the cavernous sinus, pacchionian granulations development (see Chaps. 3,5, this volume).
2.3.1 Nonproliferative Lesions
2.3.1.1 Arteriovenous Lesions
The AV lesions that can be encountered depend on the meningeal space from which they primarily develop: dural, pial, subarachnoid, or choroidal (Scheme 2.5).These locations give rise to several subtypes and may be unifocal, multifocal, hereditary,etc. (Scheme2.6).

2.3.1.2 Isolated Brain AVMs
These can be small (micro-AVM; see Fig. 2.1) or large (macro-AVM; Fig. 2.2), and this distinction is of nosological interest, as the passage from one type to the other cannot be demonstrated.Of interest is the dis­tinction between the nidus type (with an arteriolar network; Fig. 2.1) and the fistulous type (single or multiple large, direct AV communication; see Fig. 2.3). The former consists of a group of small AV shunts within a vas­cular meshwork within the nidus,while the latter is a direct opening of an artery or arteries into an unusually enlarged or giant draining vein, with or without outflow restriction. This distinction is a significant one, and in our opinion similar to what was said for micro- and macro-AVMs, there

is no transition from AVMs to AVFs or vice-versa. CAVMs can occur in the subpial space,where they can be superficial or deep,corticoventricu­lar, or buried in the white matter; in this latter location they should be distinguished from hemorrhagic angiopathy (see below and Chap. 18, this volume) (Fig. 2.4). From their origin onwards, they contain no neu­rons or nerve fibers within their nidus, which had led some authors to describe pial AVM (PAVM) as extracerebral. This justifies the distinction of proliferative angiopathy as a distinct group of diseases (see below and Chap. 18, this volume).Fistulas are also subpial; they drain either imme­diately into subarachnoid vein(s) or within the subpial venous network. They are superficial at the cerebral cortex or the surface of the cord.They are not supplied by ventral longitudinal neural perforators.

C,D A small remaining shunt was seen 2 years later (arrow,remaining venous drainage) and final spontaneous disappearance was verified.At the age of 8 years,the child’s score was 4 and he was not taking any antiepileptic medication
2.3.1.3 CAVFs
We have treated cerebral arteriovenous fistulas in children in a separate chapter since they raise specific nosological clinical and therapeutic chal­lenges (Yoshida et al. 2004; Weon et al. 2005). Their linkage with heredi­tary hemorrhagic telangiectasia is remarkable (see Chap. 4, this volume) (Mahadevan 2004). Drainage into subpial or subarachnoid veins is of paramount importance in this topography, particularly in neonates and infants (Fig. 2.3; see Sects.2.4.2 and 2.4.3). Finally, there is no gender dominance in CAVM in children (see Chap. 5, this volume)
2.3.1.4 VGAMs
VGAM is a unique, well-defined group of malformations that occur at the end of the embryonic period (Fig. 2.5). They constitute a separate group from other lesions such as CAVMs, and they are often called non-Galen­vein AV malformations,particularly in neonates and infants.In the VGAM group, there is a 2–3:1 male predominance (see Chap.3, this volume).
2.3.1.5 Cerebrofacial Arteriovenous Metameric Syndromes
The diagnosis of cerebrofacial arteriovenous metameric syndromes (CAMS) (Chap. 6, this volume) encompasses a spectrum of phenotypic expressions. Features of the syndrome as originally described and com­mon to all cases include arteriovenous malformations of the brain and orbit (with retinal and/or retrobulbar lesions) (Bonnet-Dechaume-Blanc or Wyburn-Mason syndrome) and maxillofacial lesions. A portion of these patients will manifest the complete expression of the disease with additional high-flow arteriovenous malformations of the maxilla or

Depending upon the type of cell involved,arteriovenous (CAMS 1–3) or venolymphatic (CVMS 1–3) metameric syndromes are involved. At the first cervical segment, SAMS 1 (green arrow) (SAMS 1–31) is represented. (From Bhattacharya 2001)

mandibular regions. These represent distinct and additional life-threat­ening risks because of epistaxis or oral hemorrhage. We have suggested segmental patterns of involvement in what is likely to be a disease of the neural crest and/or adjacent cephalic mesoderm. A newly proposed ratio­nal classification reflects the putative,underlying disorder and calls for a new label: cerebrofacial arteriovenous metameric syndrome (CAMS) (Bhattacharya et al. 2001) (see Chap. 6) (Fig. 2.6). The various lesions as­sociated with CAMS may reveal themselves over time in a consecutive fashion suggesting pseudo de novo lesions (Fig. 2.7).
