In angioarchitectural terms, MAVG can still be divided in two subtypes: the mural form and the choroidal form, the most common. The authors describe the clinical case of a 18 years-old female, without symptoms until July 2001, who presented an episode of impaired equilibrium associated with vomits and non-specific vision disturbances. This episode had an approximate duration of 6-8 hours with complete recovery. Neuroimaging studies were performed including CT, MRI and digital angiography, disclosed an aneurysmal vein of Galen malformation of choroidal type and Dandy-Walker malformation, association that the authors couldn’t found so far described in the literature.}, number={3}, journal={Acta Médica Portuguesa}, author={Ribeiro, Valentina T and Botelho, Luís F and Lopes, Alexandra C and Ribeiro, Paula and Xavier, João A and Teixeira, João F and Cruz, Romeu}, year={2003}, month={May}, pages={217–220} }
