Abstract
-
A giant intracranial venous aneurysm(varix) is rare and has been associated mostly with vein of Galen fistulae. A 32-year-old man presents with intracranial hemorrhage which was caused by the rupture of supratentorial arteriovenous malformation with giant venous aneurysm. Surgical resection was performed without the occurrence of additional neurological deficits. We review the literatures on this clinical entity.
