Cerebral arterio-venous malformations tend to present most commonly with neurological manifestations like headache, intracranial hemorrhage, seizures, or focal neurologic deficit. Intracranial vascular malformations with aggressive imaging features manifesting only with mild unilateral proptosis are very rare with sparse literature available on it. This report stresses upon the fact that even mild to moderate proptosis may be the primary and solitary presenting feature of a large intracranial extra-orbital pial arterio-venous malformation (AVM). Another feature highlighted in this case of unruptured pial arterio-venous malformation is the presence of hydrocephalus which is secondary to extrinsic compression of the cerebral aqueduct by dilated and tortuous draining vein. |
