Abstract: Objective: We aimed to assess the incidence and risk factors for de novo epilepsy after arteriovenous malformation (AVM) resection and compare them with a nonresection cohort after propensity score matching, utilizing a national database. Methods: Utilizing the TriNetX Research Network, we queried cases from January 1, 2004 to March 1, 2022. We included patients of all ages who underwent supratentorial AVM resection, presenting without seizures on or before surgery and without being on antiseizure medications at least 1 day before surgery. The primary outcome was seizures manifesting at least 6 weeks after surgery. Patient characteristics and outcomes were compared between the cohorts with and without postoperative epilepsy. Further cohorts were created to compare cohorts with and without embolization or rupture. After propensity score matching, we compared an additional cohort of patients with an AVM diagnosis who did not undergo resection. Results: Of the 536 patients (mean age = 38.9 ± 19.6, 52% females) presenting without seizure who underwent AVM resection, 99 (18.5%) developed de novo epilepsy, with a 1‐year cumulative incidence of 13.8%. Patients with epilepsy had higher rates of intracerebral hemorrhage, and intracerebral hemorrhage was less common in the embolization cohort. Patients in the ruptured cohort were older and more often males. After propensity score matching with 18 588 patients with AVM diagnosis but no resection, each group consisted of 529 patients, and de novo epilepsy at 1 year was significantly higher in the AVM resection cohort compared to the nonresection cohort (11.5% vs. 3.4%, p <.001). Significance: This analysis of 536 patients provides evidence that de novo epilepsy after brain AVM resection occurs at a 1‐year cumulative incidence of 13.8%, with a total of 19.4% developing de novo epilepsy. Intracerebral hemorrhage was inconsistently associated with postoperative de novo epilepsy. De novo epilepsy was significantly less frequent after AVM diagnosis without resection.
