DIAGNOSIS:

Fundus Exam:

Unilateral tortuous dilated retinal vessels.

FFA:

Rapid filling of vascular anomalies without significant leakage.

OCT:

Enlarged thickened retinal vessels and retinal edema.

MRI:

Indicates the location, size, mass effect, edema of intracranial arteriovenous malformations

Cerebral angiography:

Displays the characteristics of feeding arteries and draining veins, indicates the exact architecture of the anomaly


OCULAR MANIFESTATIONS:

  • Proptosis

  • Blepharoptosis

  • Abnormally dilated vessels of the conjunctiva

  • Nerve palsies

  • Nystagmus

  • Strabismus

  • Decreased visual acuity or total blindness (retinal ischemia, intraocular lesions)

  • Vitreous Hemorrhage
