The authors report a case of the disappearance of an arteriovenous malformation in infancy, demostrated by follow-up angiography performed 7 months after the original angiograms. Some possible mechansims whereby a cerebral arteriovenous anomaly is thrombosed are discussed.

Spontaneous regression of a cerebral arteriovenous malformation. Report of a case and review of the literature.
A cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) spontaneously and completely disappeared on subsequent angiography. Computed tomography revealed a very similar picture to that of angiographically occult…
Spontaneous disappearance of a cerebral arteriovenous malformation: case report.
TLDR
A 14-year-old girl who had been diagnosed incidentally as having a cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the left thalamus disappeared spontaneously without treatment, 6 years after the original angiograms.
Spontaneous angiographic disappearance of an intracranial arteriovenous malformation.
TLDR
A deep right hemisphere AVM was demonstrated by angiography in an 8-year-old girl soon after her presentation with a subarachnoid haemorrhage and remained visible for eight years, during which she had been completely asymptomatic and had received no treatment.
Successful management of an intracranial arteriovenous malformation by conventional irradiation.
The reduction of an intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) by conventional radiation therapy is described in a patient who refused surgery. The 2-year follow-up angiogram documented nearly…

TLDR
The case of a large arteriovenous malformation in a 17-year-old man, that thrombosed spontaneously after minor surgical manipulation is reported and the literature and some possible mechanisms are reviewed.
Spontaneous occlusion of a cerebral arteriovenous malformation: angiography and MR imaging follow-up and review of the literature.
We present the angiographic and MR imaging course of a 62-year-old man with a right parietal high-flow arteriovenous malformation (AVM), which was diagnosed because of seizures. A spontaneous,…

Spontaneous Disappearance of a Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation—Case Report—
TLDR
A 63-year-old male presented with a cerebral arteriovenous malformation in the dominant motor area which subsequently disappeared spontaneously, and the patient should be followed up as the nidus may reappear later.
Arteriovenous malformations of the brain: a teratologic challenge.
Congenital arteriovenous malformations of the brain are lesions which are well-known to neurologists and neurosurgeons but are puzzling to teratologists because they occur sporadically and are…

[Almost complete regression of cerebral arteriovenous malformation--report of a case (author's transl)].
TLDR
The importance of morphological follow up is reported, when cerebral AVM is nondefinitively treated, when the patient has undergone spontaneous regression after carotid ligation or radiation therapy.
Regression in Size of Arteriovenous Anomaly
TLDR
A case in which regression in the size of an arteriovenous anomaly took place is added, in which the lesion disappeared or was greatly reduced after carotid ligation.
Intracranial arteriovenous aneurysms; a follow-up study with particular attention to their growth.
TLDR
During the past 10 years studies on the clinical examination and the treatment of intracranial arteriovenous aneurysms have been illustrated by ever-increasing series, with a case with a 10-year interval between arteriographic studies indicating whether this is an indication that arterioVENous anuerysms increase in size with increasing age or is the result of other factors.
Spontaneous Thrombosis of Vascular Malformations of the Brain
TLDR
The unique findings in one of these cases suggests a familial incidence of malformations that thrombosed, which is likely to be related to previous cases of concurrent aneurysm and malformation reported since the advent of angiography.
The Natural History of the Strawberry Nevus
TLDR
The termstrawberry nevusis is used here to describe a common cutaneous angioma of infancy that may be present at birth, or may appear at any time in the next few months, and may at first be mistaken for a port-wine stain or even a large spider telangiectasis.
