Here is the quick lowdown on that, faux:
AVMs out side the brain recur frequently.
Dural avms recur frequently.
AVMs inside the brain have a few risk factors for recurrence: your age (the younger you are, the more likely the recurrence), deep venous drainage, a hormonal event (such as pregnancy), or a trauma.
Everyone should have at least one followup scan. Those at risk should have more. Yearly for the rest of your life? I don't think so. That would be excessive. Some members have had way more repeat angios than seems advisable, too. Angios have risks, too.
