Medical Conditions - Arteriovenous Malformation

Arteriovenous malformation is abnormal linking of blood vessels in which arteries and veins are directly connected without a capillary network in between, leading to abnormal blood flow and increased pressure. This is commonly seen in the brain or spinal cord. Symptoms include headaches, seizures, weakness, numbness, and paralysis. Depending on location and severity, treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, or embolization.
