چکیده

We present the case of a 58-year-old man who suffered a left thalamic intracerebral hemorrhage. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an incidental venous angioma in the left frontal lobe.

The arterialized venous angioma represents an uncommon, "mixed" intracranial vascular lesion whose natural history remains unknown.
