Abstract:
The endovascular treatment goal of vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM) is to occlude the shunt. We present a case of successfully treated mural type VGAM by transarterial coil embolization of the ectatic venous pouch, followed by additional transarterial coil and glue embolizations of the ectatic vein and shunt due to recurrence.
