There's a common misconception that brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) can develop at any stage of life, much like varicose veins. However, the reality is that AVMs are generally congenital, meaning individuals are born with them. They do not develop spontaneously as one ages. Symptoms might remain undetected well into adulthood, hence the illusion of late onset, but the tangled web of blood vessels typical of an AVM is usually present from birth.

A brain tumor develops when abnormal cells grow in or near the brain. Some tumors are non-cancerous (benign), while others are cancerous (malignant). Both types can disrupt normal brain functions, affecting important areas like memory, balance, and vision. Early detection and proper treatment are essential to managing these tumors and minimizing their impact on daily life.

A brain AVM can indeed lead to a stroke, particularly if the malformation ruptures and causes a hemorrhage. This bleeding can result in stroke-like symptoms and requires urgent neurological evaluation and care. The risk of stroke from a brain AVM, while generally low, escalates with the size of the malformation and other individual health factors.

Treatment for brain AVMs varies, ranging from conservative monitoring to proactive surgical interventions. Neurosurgical options include direct removal of the AVM or embolization, where materials are used to block the abnormal blood vessels. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a non-invasive alternative, using focused radiation to shrink the AVM over time. Treatment plans are highly individualized, based on the AVM's characteristics and the patient's overall health profile.
