家族性颅内动静脉畸形（AVM）是罕见的，我们描述了一对在儿童时期都患有脑AVM的父子，两名患者都接受了成功的AVM手术摘除术，家族性AVM在年轻时出现，并且往往是多发性的，就像我们的一名患者一样。无症状家族成员的影像学检查可能发现以前未诊断的AVM，我们建议筛查有此类病变家族史的患者亲属。
Familial intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, We describe a father and son both presenting in childhood with cerebral AVMs, Both patients underwent successful surgical extirpation of the AVM, Familial AVMs present at a young age and tend to be multiple, as was the case in one of our patients. Imaging of asymptomatic family members may detect previously undiagnosed AVMs, and we recommend screening of the relatives of patients with a strong family history of such lesions.
