We report two cases, in first cousins, of spinal arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) of the perimedullary fistula type and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Spinal AVMs are a rare clinical presentation of HHT, but can be the first manifestation in a child with this disorder. The importance of considering a coexisting disorder of vascular dysplasia, such as HHT, when a child presents with a spinal AVM is discussed.
我们报告了两例表亲患髓周瘘管型脊髓动静脉畸形（AVM）和遗传性出血性毛细血管扩张症（HHT）的病例。脊髓AVM是HHT的一种罕见临床表现，但可能是患有这种疾病的儿童的首发表现。本文讨论了儿童出现脊髓AVM时考虑并存血管发育异常疾病（如HHT）的重要性。
