    Abstract:
    Only limited information is available concerning dural arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) found in association with cerebral aneurysms. The present report focuses on six such cases, concentrating attention on clinical characteristics and significance. Of a total of 46 dural AVMs encountered over a given period, six (13%) were linked with cerebral aneurysms. Particularly strong associations were noted for dural AVMs in the anterior cranial fossa (three of four cases) and convexity (all of three cases). With dural AVMs in the anterior cranial fossa, subarachnoid haemorrhage is common, so that where this is encountered the possibility of a complicating aneurysm should be considered in order to select an appropriate treatment.
