    Author: Lao HC, Hseu SS, Huang YY, Yu YS, Tsai SK.
    Journal: Acta Anaesthesiol Sin; 2003 Dec; 41(4):209-14. PubMed ID: 14768520.
    Abstract:
    Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) from an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in pregnancy is quite rare and could lead to exceedingly high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. We report a 26-year-old woman at 36 weeks' gestation who sustained ICH due to two huge AVMs. For preventing from progressive increased intracranial pressure (IICP), Cesarean section under general anesthesia was performed successfully. Herein, we also discuss the anesthetic management after reviewing the related current literatures.
