Cerebellar arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) account for 10%-15% of intracranial AVMs, with a high risk of severe complications and mortality following rupture.
Treatment options include embolization, radiosurgery, or microsurgical resection, with challenges like arterial adhesions that can increase risks.
This case study highlights a successful partial embolization and complete microsurgical resection of a tonsillar AVM in a young female patient, demonstrating the importance of anatomical knowledge in ensuring safety and effectiveness during surgery.
