Spontaneous intraventricular bleeding due to arteriovenous malformation

Öz

Arteriovenous malformations are developmental anomalies of intracranial vascular structures. These are the most dangerous ones of cerebrovascular malformations that have the potential to cause intracranial hemorrhage and epilepsy in most patients. They are seen equally in men and women. Symptoms occur commonly in the second and third decades. Many affected people may remain asymptomatic for life. In this case report, a 17-year-old boy who presented with cerebral hemorrhage, which is the most important complication of arteriovenous malformation and rarely manifested at an early age, is presented.

Arteriovenöz malformasyona bağlı spontan intraventriküler kanama

Öz

Arteriovenöz malformasyonlar intrakraniyal vasküler yapıların gelişimsel anomalileridir. Bunlar çoğu hastada intrakranial kanama ve epilepsiye neden olma potansiyeline sahip serebrovasküler malformasyonların en tehlikelisidir. Erkek ve kadınlarda eşit oranlarda görülürler. Yaygın olarak ikinci ve üçüncü dekadlarda bulguları ortaya çıkar. Etkilenen birçok insan yaşam boyu asemptomatik kalabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda, erken yaşta bulgu vermesi nadir olan arteriovenöz malformasyonun en önemli komplikasyonu olan serebral kanama ile başvuran 17 yaşındaki çocuk vaka sunulmuştur.
