Abstract:
Vein of Galen malformations (VGAMs) are rare and complex congenital brain vascular anomalies that pose significant diagnostic and treatment challenges. The natural history of this type of vascular anomaly is very poor, with many patients succumbing to complications such as congestive heart failure, hydrocephalus, and brain parenchymal injury. Although the clinical course of most VGAMs was considered unfortunate, with meticulous imaging, a group of lesions with a more placid presentation and course can be identified.
