Retinal arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare congenital, nonhereditary vascular anomalies of the retina. We report the case of a 6-year-old child presenting with recurrent frontal headaches. Funduscopy examination revealed an AVM in the right eye, inferior to the optic nerve head. Optical coherence tomography and retinal imaging confirmed the presence of an AVM measuring 3 disk diameters. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head revealed a cavernous malformation in the right frontal subcortical region.
视网膜动静脉畸形(AVM)是一种罕见的先天性、非遗传性视网膜血管异常。我们报告一例6岁儿童反复出现额部头痛的病例。眼底镜检查发现右眼视神经乳头下方有一个动静脉畸形。光学相干断层扫描和视网膜成像证实存在一个直径为3个视盘直径的动静脉畸形。头部磁共振成像显示右侧额叶皮质下区域有一个海绵状畸形。
