Abstract A 12-day-old infant in intractable cardiac failure due to a vein of Galen malformation was treated successfully with serial ligation of the majority of the vessels feeding the malformation. Despite some residual vascular supply to the malformation, the congestive heart failure has disappeared and growth and development have been normal over a 3-year follow-up period.

AbstractVein of Galen malformation (VOGM) is a rare congenital cerebral vascular malformation characterized by an aneurysmally dilated midline deep venous structure, fed by abnormal arteriovenous communication. Most patients develop severe congestive heart failure at neonatal period that is fatal if left untreated. Rarely, patients with low-flow fistula present with headache, seizure, or focal neurological sign at adulthood. A 28-year-old female with VOGM-related epilepsy was introduced in this brief report.

Adult Presentation

Complete atrioventricular septal defect generally presents early in life with symptoms of congestive heart failure. Untreated, patients almost universally develop irreversible pulmonary hypertension. We present an unusual case of a Down's syndrome patient whose septal defect first presented at 20 years of age.
