Sumario:The authors report a case of intracranial arteriovenous malformation in functional areas, initially presenting with symptomatic epilepsy was surgically excised by the Neurosurgery Department of our hospital. The patient’s head computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital subtraction angiography examination suggested intracranial arteriovenous malformations in the left frontal functional area. A preoperative 3D-reconstruction technique was used to reconstruct the malformed vascular mass, supplying arteries, draining veins, and precise surgical resection was performed. Postoperative pathology indicated vascular malformation. No seizures occurred after surgery. There was no further neurological impairment. Preoperative use of image postprocessing techniques can facilitate precise surgical resection of brain arteriovenous malformations. Three-dimensional Slicer in cerebral arteriovenous malformations in functional areas not only shortened the preoperative planning time but also improved the efficiency of the surgery. Reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. It is helpful for further popularization and application.
