Abstract
Background:
Developmental venous anomaly (DVA) is considered a benign and asymptomatic cerebrovascular malformation, and only isolated cases of symptomatic DVAs are described in the literature. Even more rarely will these symptoms come from an intraparenchymal hemorrhage caused by the DVA.
Methods and results:
We present two symptomatic DVAs by intracerebellar hemorrhage.
Conclusion:
The diagnostic steps regarding the pathophysiology of DVA hemorrhage and the treatment options are discussed.
