Abstract

The vein of Galen malformation is a rare cerebrovascular disorder which is characterized by an abnormal direct communication between one or several cerebral arteries and the vein of Galen. In neonates, it usually causes congestive heart failure. Infants, older children, and adults usually present with mass effect, seizures, or intracranial hemorrhage. Here we report a 9-months-old infant diagnosed with the vein of Galen malformation. This report emphasizes that the unexplained congestive heart failure, with or without neurologic symptoms, during neonatal or early infancy period might be due to the vein of Galen malformation.

Özet

Galen ven malformasyonu bir veya birkaç serebral arterle Galen veni arasındaki anormal bağlantı ile karakterli nadir bir serebrovasküler hastalıktır. Yenidoğanlarda genellikle konjestif kalp yetmezliğine neden olur. İnfantlar, daha büyük çocuklar ve yetişkinler sıklıkla kitle etkisi, nöbetler veya intrakraniyal kanama ile gelirler. Burada Galen ven malformasyonu tanısı almış 9 aylık bir süt çocuğu sunulmuş ve nörolojik bulgular olsun ya da olmasın, yen/doğan veya erken sütçocukluğu döneminde açıklanamayan konjestif kalp yetmezliğinin Galen ven malformasyonuna bağlı olabileceğinin vurgulanması amaçlanmıştır.
