Abstract The authors present a patient with a large arteriovenous malformation in the temperoparietooccipital region of the dominant hemisphere that caused seizures, a homonymous hemianopia, and broad neuropsychological disturbances probably caused by a cerebral steal syndrome. There was no history of hemorrhage. Surgical resection resulted in marked improvement of neuropsychological function and disappearance of the hemianopia. The authors discuss the pre- and postoperative neuropsychological findings, the pathogenesis of the steal phenomenon, and the indications concerning the resection of this large and deep-seated arteriovenous malformation in a functionally important region of the left hemisphere. They state that surgical resection is the method of choice.

In this article, we evaluate the effectiveness of Cone Beam Computed Tomography, through a case study, in assessing the complication of intracranial bleeding during an endovascular treatment of brain arteriovenous malformation when compared to Multislice-Detector Computed Tomography performed immediately after the procedure. The image quality of Cone Beam Computed Tomography has enough diagnostic value in differentiating between haemorrhage, embolic materials and the arteriovenous malformation nidus to facilitate physicians to decide for further management of the patient.
