✓ This 10-year-old child suffered a hemorrhage into the right parietal lobe, the result of a ruptured arteriovenous angioma. From birth, the boy had a venous angioma of the mucous membrane of the cheek, lower lip, and hypoglossal area on the right side. The coexistence of these two vascular defects is most unusual, and venous angioma in early life may suggest the presence of cerebral angioma.

Arteriovenous cerebral malformations represent congenital malformations. Considering the anatomical characteristics of the cerebral angiomas and their localization, in a great number of cases they demand a combined therapeutic approach - surgery,. embolization and radiotherapy. Besides the constant progress of technology, 5% of all cerebral angiomas can not be completely excluded from the circulation. Therefore, the need to understand their natural course became a necessity. Our results point to the fact that they are vascular malformations of a considerably more benign clinical course than the aneurysms. Our clinical model points to an annual risk of hemorrhage which is 3.3% with total mortality of 5.3%, especially if the size of the angioma is 2.5-5 cm, localized in the motor zone of the brain, with combined type of vein drainage and arterial supply from the vertebrobasilary confluence. Epilepsy caused by the cerebral angioma is in 26.7% refractory to medicamentous therapy and in 25% (every 4th patient) will have hemorrhage with an annual risk of 0.14%.
