Abstract
Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are rare in pregnancy , Intracranial hemorrhage due to rupture of an AVM during pregnancy can have serious consequences on the health of the mother and the fetus. We report the case of a pregnant woman with AVM presented to our hospital at 39th week of Gestationnnel age, and Caesarean section under general anesthesia was performed successfully. Conclusions: Patients with symptomatic AVM during pregnancy are challenging in terms of medical approach in general, and of anesthetic management in particular. in the absence of consensus the anesthetic technique should be discussed on a case-by-case.
