Abstract

A case in which closure of an arteriovenous malformation involving the dura mater occurred spontaneously is presented. The anatomy, pathophysiology and clinical symptomatology of such lesions are reviewed. Possible mechanisms of spontaneous closure of intracranial arteriovenous malformations are discussed.
