Subarachnoid haemorrhage in a patient with a left temporal arteriovenous malformation and an associated anterior communicating artery aneurysm

We report a patient who presented with a subarachnoid haemorrhage in the setting of both an arteriovenous malformation and an intracerebral aneurysm. It was felt that the aneurysm had bled and both abnormalities were treated surgically in a sequential manner. The problem of aneurysm combined with arteriovenous malformation is reviewed.
