ABSTRACT
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), is a very rare vascular disorder, characterized by arteriovenous malformations of various types. High cervical dural fistulas are extremely and usually manifestate with progressive myelopathy. We present neurovascular imaging in patient suffering from intradural extramedullar intracranial malformation who presented repeated transient ischemic brainstem attacks. This case illustrates the hemodynamic anatomical information derived multimodal neuroimaging procedures. The chest CT detected pulmonary AVM. Evaluating younger patients acute brain ischemia, HHT has to be kept mind. Pulmonary AVM often leads TIA or stroke due paradoxical embolization.
