Anaesthetic management of vein of Galen malformation in a very low birth weight preterm baby for endovascular embolisation

Extra-cardiac arteriovenous malformations are rare causes of severe cardiac failure in the neonatal period. Aneurysmal malformation of the vein of Galen may lead to a diagnostic confusion because the presenting signs point to a cardiac cause of failure. Endovascular therapy is found to be an effecti...
