A Brain AVM (Arteriovenous Malformation) is an abnormal tangle of arteries and veins in the brain where blood flows directly from arteries to veins without passing through normal capillaries. This creates high-pressure flow that can weaken vessels over time.
🔎 Why It Is Serious:
Risk of brain hemorrhage
Seizures
Chronic headaches
Progressive neurological weakness
AVMs are often diagnosed through MRI, CT scan, or Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA), which provides a detailed roadmap of abnormal vessels.
