title: Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage caused by an unusual association of developmental venous anomaly and arteriovenous malformation.
abstract: We describe three patients who presented with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage resulting from the close association of developmental venous anomaly (DVA) and arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Angioarchitecturally, either the DVA formed the draining pathway for the AVM or they shared a common venous channel. The AVMs were treated by targeted embolization and the DVAs were carefully preserved. It is suggested that the unusual association of an AVM with the less flexible DVA was the cause of hemorrhage.
