Abstract

Pial arteriovenous fistula is a rare condition in which a pial artery connects directly to a pial vein in the brain. It accounts for 1.6–4.8% of all brain vascular malformations. Pial arteriovenous fistula is considered to be associated with a poor prognosis without treatment; thus, early detection and treatment are important.

We report a case of pial arteriovenous fistula which was caused by a seizure.
