AI Article Synopsis
- Two cases of vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation were identified in early life, showing different outcomes.
- The findings indicate that early detection does not always lead to a bad prognosis.
- This emphasizes the importance of careful monitoring and prompt treatment to improve patient outcomes.
Article Abstract
We present two cases of vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation, detected in early life, with differing outcomes. This suggests that early detection of this malformation in fetuses or neonates does not necessarily indicate a poor prognosis, highlighting the need for vigilant monitoring and timely intervention to optimize outcomes.

Idiopathic pulmonary arteriovenous malformation: a rarity in clinical practice.
J Vasc Bras
January 2025
Universidade Federal da Paraíba - UFPB, Hospital Universitário Lauro Wanderley - HULW, João Pessoa, PB, Brasil.
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) are characterized by abnormal pulmonary vessels forming arteriovenous shunts that compromise oxygenation of the blood, causing hypoxemia, and predispose to infections and cerebral ischemia. The patient in this case was a 38-year-old male who presented with tachypnea and dyspnea, cyanosis of extremities, and significant digital clubbing. The patient had structural epilepsy secondary to neurosurgery for a cerebral abscess during childhood.

Background: The internal venous system of the brain is a crucial anatomical landmark during accesses to the third ventricle through the foramen of Monro. Many classifications based on radiological assessment of the system have been developed, but they tend to be descriptive and do not highlight favorable anatomical variants. The aim of our study was to create a system based on morphometric measurements to facilitate preoperative decision-making regarding access to third ventricle tumors.

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare and potentially critical cerebrovascular disease involving intracranial dural sinuses and veins. The diagnosis is a stepwise pathway starting from clinical suspicion and employing several neuroradiological techniques, mainly Computed Tomography (CT)-based and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-based modalities. The neuroradiological findings, both in the diagnostic phase and in the follow-up phase, may provide some results at risk for misdiagnosis.

Background: Interventional neuroradiology is a dynamic field with technological advancements constantly driving evolution in clinical practice. Case series provide interventional neuroradiologists the opportunity to describe the clinical implications of novel equipment and techniques almost in real-time, informing broader adoption and directing future research. Complete reporting in case series is vital in enabling readers to detect bias, determine the generalizability of results and replicate study methodology.

Introduction: Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a severe complication in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) after endovascular treatment (EVT). We hypothesize that asymmetry of the internal cerebral veins (ICVs) on baseline CT angiogram (CTA) may serve as an adjunctive predictor of HT.
Methods: We conducted a study on consecutive AIS-LVO patients from November 2020 to April 2022.
