Cerebral and medullary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) lead to arterial and venous networks to communicate pathologically, creating an arteriovenous shunt. The occurrence of intracranial haemorrhage is the most important prognostic factor of AVMs because it is associated with a significant morbidity and mortality. The genetic, molecular and cellular mechanisms that cause vascular malformations of the central nervous system are partially known and the influence of genetic damage on the prognosis of AVMs is poorly known.
