Case series reports severe heart failure in infants with cerebral arteriovenous aneurysms, highlighting diagnostic and treatment challenges.
Three infants with cerebral arteriovenous aneurysms developed severe heart failure. The diagnosis was sug- gested by hearing a murmur when listening over the skull. The vascular abnormality was successfully shown by cerebral arteriography in two of the cases. The heart failure proved difficult to treat and two of the infants died. Some of the problems of diagnosis and management are discussed. Silverman et al. (I955) described two examples of cerebral arteriovenous aneurysm presenting with cardiac failure in the neonatal period.
