This case report describes the successful treatment of a 30-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with an acute, severe headache, nausea, and neurological deficits due to a ruptured AVM causing ICH. Initial neuroimaging revealed a significant right parietal lobe hemorrhage, and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) confirmed a Spetzler-Martin Grade II AVM, indicating moderate surgical complexity; the patient underwent staged interventions, starting with endovascular embolization using the Onyx liquid embolic system to reduce nidus perfusion, followed by microsurgical resection with intraoperative neuromonitoring, resulting in complete AVM removal and near-normal neurological recovery at discharge. The integration of neurosurgery, interventional radiology, and neuro-anesthesiology expertise facilitated a tailored approach, leveraging advanced imaging and therapeutic techniques to minimize procedural risks and optimize outcomes. This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis, precise imaging with tools like DSA, and a collaborative, staged treatment strategy in achieving favorable results in AVM-associated ICH. It also emphasizes the value of personalized care plans and continuous postoperative follow-up to ensure long-term success and detect potential recurrence. Lessons learned include the efficacy of combining embolization and resection for moderate-complexity AVMs and the need for ongoing research to refine protocols and improve prognosis, reinforcing that multidisciplinary coordination is essential for managing such intricate vascular anomalies effectively.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":53472,"journal":{"name":"Radiology Case Reports","volume":"20 8","pages":"Pages 3811-3819"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143948906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His symptoms began following a dental extraction complicated by alveolar osteitis. Physical examination revealed a lesion on the hard palate, and laboratory tests indicated an underlying infection. MRI of the brain and orbits showed signal abnormalities consistent with an infectious process involving the preseptal and peri-orbital regions, with extension to the optic nerve and orbital muscles. Based on clinical, imaging, and medical history findings, a diagnosis of hard palate mucormycosis with peri-orbital involvement was established. The patient received intravenous meropenem, fluconazole, and insulin for diabetes management alongside symptomatic treatments. Gradual clinical improvement was noted, including a reduction in peri-orbital swelling and better oral intake. The patient was discharged with a continued plan for antifungal therapy and close diabetic monitoring.
