摘要
We report a case of a large arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of neonatal onset with heart failure. Transfontanel color Doppler sonography revealed abnormal vessels in the early stage of the investigation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed numerous flow voids suggesting abnormal vessels, and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) disclosed numerous bizarre abnormal vessels. Color Doppler sonography is a convenient and appropriate procedure for the early bedside diagnosis of neonatal AVMs. MRI and MRA can replace cerebral angiography for the diagnosis of neonatal AVMs.
