新生児期に発症したAVMの1例

A Case of AVM in a Neonate

I．はじめに

　脳動静脈奇形（以下AVMと略す）は先天性疾患であるにもかかわらず，新生児期に脳内出血で発症する例は非常に少ない．今回われわれは生後12日目に脳内出血で発症したAVMの1手術例を経験したので，若干の文献的考察を加え報告する．

Although arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is con-sidered a congenital disease, few cases of AVM are manifested clinically in the neonatal period. In this pap-er a neonatal case of AVM manifested as intracranial hemorrhage is reported.

A newborn female infant 12 days after birth, was admitted to a hospital with the chief complaint of sud-den onset of vomiting and fever. Neurological examina-tion revealed left hemiparesis with bulging of the ante-rior fontanel.

CT examination demonstrated a large mass lesion with hemorrhage in the right parietal lobe.
