Abstract

Brain arteriovenous malformation is a type of high flow vascular malformation shunt in which blood flows from a feeding artery to a draining vein forming a connection called nidus (shunting arterioles/venous loops). They may not become clinically evident for several years. Other possible
clinical presentations include headaches, seizures, and hemorrhage, which can be a vital complication.
