Abstract

Intracranial pial arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) are rare vascular malformation especially in the first 2 years of life. The pathology in this age group is associated with greater morbidity and mortality. We report a rare case of 36-day-old male infant with a pial AVF associated with an arterial aneurysm, who presented with intraventricular hemorrhage and hydrocephalus. In addition, an online review of the literatures on pediatric pial AVF was performed using PubMed on published case reports and articles from 1980 to April 2013.
