RESUMO
Cavernous malformation is an important cause of cerebral hemorrhage in pregnant women. We experienced a case of cesarean section followed by neurosurgery for resection of ruptured cavernous malformation of pons in a 24-year-old pregnant woman. Establishing integrated treatment strategy for pregnant women with cavernous malformation is difficult because of the small number of cases. Therefore, the cooperation between the brain surgeon, anesthesiologist and obstetrician is essential when surgical intervention is needed. Despite aspiration pneumonia, the patient successfully underwent surgery. We reported this case along with a brief literature review.
