Multiple cerebral arteriovenous malformations occurred in a 48-year-old male complaining of headache, after orthopedic treatment for a leg fracture. He was free from neurological deficits and signs of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. Postcontrast computed tomography showed two abnormally enhanced lesions in the right occipital and left parietal regions. Magnetic resonance imaging showed these lesions as tiny vascular flow void signs, with neither new nor old hemorrhages. Angiography showed these lesions to be arteriovenous malformations. He declined treatment, and was followed as an outpatient.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon

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.
