Abstract

A full-term newborn infant with intracranial hemorrhage secondary to an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the choroid plexus is presented. Although angiography was not undertaken before surgery, a vascular nodule containing an AVM nidus was found in the hematoma wall. The authors stress that an AVM should be considered as a cause of intracranial hemorrhage and that the hematoma wall be searched thoroughly in neonates without predisposing factors.
