Correlation between arteriovenous malformation nidus size and intraparenchymal hematoma volume in the event of rupture

Abstract

•Our study did not support the hypothesis that small AVMs lead to larger hematoma volumes in the event of a rupture.•AVM size did not correlate with the clinical severity of the bleeding as measured with HH and WFNS scores.•Larger supratentorial hematomas were associated with a more severe clinical manifestation and a poorer outcome.•In the event of a rupture, the AVM size did not correlate with the 2-4-month GOS.•AVICH score showed a good correlation with the 2-4-month GOS score.
