ABSTRACT

 

 

Introduction: Microsurgery has been the gold standard for the treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVM), however, endovascular therapy has emerged as an option in recent years.
Clinical case: We present the case of a previously healthy 45-year-old woman that presented with a ruptured AVM treated successfully with curative embolization.
Conclusion: Endovascular treatment is a feasible and safe option for the treatment of arteriovenous malformations.
