Paediatric neurovascular anomalies associated with the vein of Galen (VG) comprise of a spectrum of rare, complex, and life-threatening conditions. In this group, the "vein of Galen aneurysmal dilatation" (VGAD) is a distinct entity that often presents with progressive neurological symptoms in older children. Acute haemorrhage in VGAD is uncommon. We present an unusual presentation of VGAD in a neonate and discuss the challenges faced in the management.
