Cerebellar arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) represent 10%–15% of all intracranial AVMs and are associated with a greater risk for hemorrhagic presentation compared with supratentorial AVMs. When they reach the cerebellopontine angle cistern, neurovascular compression syndromes, including trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm, can occur. Due to the aggressive natural history of cerebellar AVM, an effective treatment strategy is required. In this video, the authors demonstrate the technical nuances of microsurgical resection of an unruptured cerebellar AVM in a 24-year-old female presenting with trigeminal neuralgia. The patient underwent right retrosigmoid craniotomy and complete resection of the AVM with resolution of trigeminal neuralgia.The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/6GmNjgFQwx8

Congenital uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is an extremely rare condition with <100 cases documented in literature. We report multiparous women presenting to us with a history of postcoital bleed. Initial Doppler ultrasonography was consistent with features suggestive of AVM. Subsequently, computed tomography (CT) angiography confirmed the diagnosis. Embolization was chosen as the treatment because of the large extension of AVM and the risk of hemorrhage during hysterectomy. The patient was discharged in a stable condition with a plan of repeat embolization in the next setting. At 6 and 12 weeks of follow-up, she did not experience any further episodes of bleed. The purpose of this case report is to highlight the salient clinical features, diagnosis, and the management options available for this rare clinical condition.
