Malformación arteriovenosa cerebelosa. Caso clínico
Journal Title: Revista Eugenio Espejo - Year 2019, Vol 13, Issue 2
Abstract
Arteriovenous malformations represent a large and heterogeneous group of lesions. These anomalies are characterized by being congenital and representing a true diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The present case deals with a 7-year-old female patient without health history of importance. She presented a 2-month evolutionary picture, specified by right frontal-parietal headache and left upper limb weakness. Complementary imaging tests identify an arteriovenous-cerebellar malformation that compromises the diencephalon and right thalamus. An embolization was applied during hospitalization, which markedly improved the established pathological picture.
