Abstract

Brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a rare congenital disorder affecting young adults with an incidence of 0.94 per 100,000 population. Intracranial digital subtraction angiography has to be done in all patients and grading of AVM is done as per Spetzler-Martin grading. We report a rare case of left basal ganglia large AVM treated by endovascular embolization. Our experience with endovascular embolization using Onyx is successful in the treatment of large brain AVM. Endovascular embolization with Onyx is safe and feasible in deeply located large AVMs of the brain. Our patient has postoperatively recovered completely without any neurological deficit.
