Abstract

Brain Arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are dangerous and rare vascular malformations. They have potential to cause headache, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), focal neurologic deficit (FND) and seizure. We report a case of a 32-year-old man with an inoperable large complex brainstem AVM. He later developed depression and anxiety, which led to his suicidal ideation and subsequent admission. © 2019
