Case Reports
Microsurgical treatment for a Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation of the Central Sulcus.
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are congenital neurovascular disorders frequently manifested in young adults. The clinical presentation is variable and depends on its location, size, and ability to steal flow from adjacent areas, but it depends mainly on the occurrence of bleeding.1 The treatment of these lesions when located in eloquent areas, especially around the central sulcus, is controversial. ⋯ We consider that surgical removal of many of these lesions is feasible when preoperative planning is performed,3 when it is based on deep anatomic knowledge, and particularly when using a refined microsurgical technique.1 In this 3-dimensional Video 1, we present a case of a cerebral AVM of the central sulcus in which we achieved complete resection with microsurgical treatment without any neurologic sequelae for the patient. The patient consented to publication of images.

[Artificial Intelligence: Infrastructures and Prerequisites at European Level].
The application of artificial intelligence (AI) is often associated with the use of large amounts of data for the construction of AI models and algorithms. This data should ideally comply with the FAIR Data principles, i.e. being findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. However, the handling of health data poses a particular challenge in this context. ⋯ We discuss the current situation but also the obstacles for a wider application of AI in medicine in Europe and give suggestions how to solve the different issues. The article covers different subjects like data protection, research data infrastructures and approval of medical products. Finally, this article shows how it can nevertheless be possible to establish a secure and at the same time effective handling of data for use in AI at the European level despite its unneglectable difficulties.
