A 34 year old patient presented with a schizophrenia-like clinical picture, and was later found to have a large vein of Galen Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM). There are reports in the literature suggesting that vein of Galen AVMs are associated with psychiatric symptoms. However, the clinical pictures tend to be non specific. We discuss the relevance of the association of vein of Galen AVMs with schizophrenia-like symptomatology.
一名34岁患者表现出类似精神分裂症的临床症状，后来被发现患有大脑大静脉动静脉畸形（AVM）。文献中有报道表明大脑大静脉AVM与精神症状有关。然而，临床表现往往不具有特异性。我们讨论了大脑大静脉AVM与类似精神分裂症症状之间关联的相关性。
