[A meningioma associated with AVM: a case report].
This paper reports a case of meningioma associated with AVM. A 67 years old lady showed transient rt. lower hemiparesis with severe headache, nausea and consciousness disorder. Bilateral carotid angiogram and CT scan revealed lt. convexity meningioma and AVM. Lt MCA and ACA entered into the AVM from which several draining vessels entered into the deep venous system. These two lesions were removed by one stage. It is quite rare that cerebral tumor associates with intracranial AVM. Only two cases of meningioma associated with AVM have been reported.
