Sažetak
Developmental venous anomalies are cerebral vascular malformations that present normal venous drainage of cerebral tissue. With increased and accessible usage of modern diagnostic tools, they are now one of the most commonly diagnosed cerebral vascular malformations. Although developmental venous anomalies are considered to be benign lesions, association with arteriovenous malformation renders malignant potential to this combined pathology. In the case presented, these malformations were clinically silent and diagnosed accidentally, so they were not treated either with surgery, endovascular surgery or radiosurgery, considering the possible complications such as venous infarction of the brain, and because there was no obvious neurologic deficit related to this pathology. The patient presents for regular neurosurgical follow up examinations and has been free from symptoms that were present on admission.
