Descriptor malformaciones arteriovenosas intracraneales
Entry term(s) malformaciones arteriovenosas cerebrales
malformaciones arteriovenosas intracraneales congénitas
Scope note: Anomalías vasculares congénitas del encéfalo caracterizadas por una comunicación directa entre una arteria y una vena sin paso de la sangre a través de los CAPILARES. Las localizaciones y tamaño de las derivaciones determinan los síntomas, que incluyen CEFALEAS, CONVULSIONES, ACCIDENTE CEREBROVASCULAR, HEMORRAGIAS INTRACRANEALES, efecto de masa y efecto de robo vascular.

Scope note: Congenital vascular anomalies in the brain characterized by direct communication between an artery and a vein without passing through the CAPILLARIES. The locations and size of the shunts determine the symptoms including HEADACHES; SEIZURES; STROKE; INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES; mass effect; and vascular steal effect.
