【 摘 要 】

Hemorrhagic stroke due to ruptured brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is a common cause in young stroke patients. When the ruptured AVMs are in deep location, the choice of endovascular intervention with the arterial approach to AVM embolization is routine but in many cases, it is not feasible due to the inability to access because of the small and tortuous arterial branch, however, the intravenous approach also results in high complete obliteration rates but also carries a higher risk of stroke than the intra-arterial route. We describe a 36-year-old female patient diagnosed with intracranial and intraventricular hemorrhage who underwent complete transvenous embolization of the ruptured AVMs, and achieved near-complete clinical recovery after 1 month with the modified Rankin scale 1.
