A Neonatal Arteriovenous Malformation with Subdural and Intracerebral Hematoma

ABSTRACT

An unusual case of neonatal arteriovenous malformation with multi-layered subdural and intracerebral hematoma is reported. The patient manifested repeated seizure attacks, right hemiparesis, increased head size, and decreased response. Magnetic resonance images showed multiple intensities of hemorrhage around enhancing nidus and draining vessels. He is being followed up for 6 months without exhibiting any deficit after an operation of excising nidus and removing subdural and intracerebral hematoma. The literature was reviewed for the neonatal arteriovenous malformation.
