| Abstract: | A patient presented with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from a cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) which was later totally removed at surgery. The patient presented again with a new SAH from a spinal AVM that was also totally removed at surgery. Coexistence of spinal and cerebral arteriovenous malformations are exceedingly rare and hemorrhage from each is not previously reported. This case emphasizes the importance of investigating the spinal canal in otherwise unexplained spontaneous SAH. |
