Overview
Symptoms of AVM vary according to the location of the malformation. Roughly (88% -needs citation) AVM are asymptomatic; often the malformation is discovered as part of an autopsy or during treatment of an unrelated disorder (called in medicine an incidental finding), rarely its expansion or a micro-bleed from it, could cause epilepsy, deficit or elicit pain.
Symptoms
The most general symptoms include
- Headache
- Epilepsy,
- Difficulties with movement or coordination, including muscle weakness and even paralysis;
- Vertigo (dizziness);
- Difficulties of speech (dysarthria) and communication, such as alogia;
- Difficulties with everyday activities, such as apraxia;
- Abnormal sensations (numbness, tingling, or spontaneous pain);
- Memory and thought-related problems, such as confusion, dementia or hallucinations.
