title: Familial arteriovenous malformations in children.
abstract: Cerebral arteriovenous malformations are uncommon in children. Familial incidence of these lesions is reported in only 10 families. We report a family in which the two youngest siblings had this anomaly, and we review the literature. These cases represent a clinical situation that emergency physicians may encounter.
