Significant Brain Oedema in Unruptured Brain Arteriovenous Malformation – a Case Report
Original language description
Mass effect and collateral oedema in an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) are often seen to be associated with previous bleeding. Perilesional oedema can rarely occur in an unruptured AVM and cause clinical symptoms. We present a patient with relatively small left frontal AVM surrounded by substantial brain oedema in whom a generalized epileptic seizure occurred. Both – digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and MRI showed venous outflow abnormality, the most discussed aetiological factor of oedema in unruptured AVMs. The patient was successfully treated with microsurgical resection and made an uneventful recovery.
