A 5-year-old boy with macrocephaly and mental retardation was referred for radiologic evaluation. After cranial CT and MR imaging, the diagnosis of mural type vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation was established by angiography. Two weeks later, preembolization angiography revealed complete thrombosis of the malformation. Although it is a very rare event, vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation may spontaneously thrombose following diagnostic angiography. Possible effects of contrast media on thrombosis were discussed.
一名患有巨头畸形和智力发育迟缓的5岁男孩被转诊进行放射学评估。经头颅CT和磁共振成像检查后，通过血管造影确诊为盖伦静脉瘤样畸形壁型。两周后，栓塞前血管造影显示畸形完全血栓形成。尽管这是非常罕见的情况，但盖伦静脉瘤样畸形在诊断性血管造影后可能会自发形成血栓。文中讨论了造影剂对血栓形成的可能影响。
