Vein of Galen aneurysm is a rare and complex congenital, vascular malformation of the median line with severe prognosis. It is commonly associated with refractory heart failure. This disorder usually occurs during the neonatal period and in infants. It is characterized by age- dependent clinical polymorphism. Diagnosis is based on cerebral angiography which plays a role in diagnostic and therapeutic decisions. Now, the treatment of choice is based on endovascular embolization which has improved survival rates. We here report a case of Galen aneurysmal malformation in a small child aged 18 months revealed by seizures and bilatéral proptosis.
