Abstract

This is the case of a 13-year-old female with a history of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) 8 years ago. TBI resulted to acute bleed of the right frontotemporal lobe with residual motor deficit. Patient now presented with unprovoked focal seizures. She was managed as a case of epilepsy and started antiseizure medications. On further work up, she was noted to have Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) on the right temporal lobe. She successfully underwent embolization of the AVM. Patient tolerated the procedure and the seizures have been controlled since then.
