Association of intracranial aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation. 1983

H Tran-Dinh, and L M Williams, and L S Jayasinghe

In a series of 252 patients (47 with arteriovenous malformation, 205 with aneurysms), two patients had a coexisting intracranial aneurysm and an arteriovenous malformation. In one patient, the aneurysm was proximal to the main feeding arteries of the arteriovenous malformation. In the other patient, there was no anatomical relationship between the two lesions. These findings illustrate different views on the pathogenesis of the rare association of the two conditions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D002532 Intracranial Aneurysm Abnormal outpouching in the wall of intracranial blood vessels. Most common are the saccular (berry) aneurysms located at branch points in CIRCLE OF WILLIS at the base of the brain. Vessel rupture results in SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE or INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES. Giant aneurysms (>2.5 cm in diameter) may compress adjacent structures, including the OCULOMOTOR NERVE.

D002538 Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations Congenital vascular anomalies in the brain characterized by direct communication between an artery and a vein without passing through the CAPILLARIES. The locations and size of the shunts determine the symptoms including HEADACHES; SEIZURES; STROKE; INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES; mass effect; and vascular steal effect.
