    DESCRIPTION

    An arteriovenous malformation is an abnormal tangle of blood vessels connecting arteries and veins, which disrupts normal blood flow and oxygen circulation

    Arteries are responsible for taking oxygen rich blood from the heart to the brain. Veins carry the oxygen depleted from the heart to the brain. Veins carry the oxygen depleted blood back to the lungs and heart

    The cause of arteriovenous malformation is not clear. They are rarely passed down among families
