Abstract
Education/Practice Gap
A vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation is a rare but often life-threatening condition that can present with a profoundly ill neonate shortly after birth. It is important for clinicians to recognize and diagnose the various hemodynamic phenotypes to choose therapy to stabilize these infants, plan timing of surgical, and provide optimal counseling to families.
Objectives
After completing this article, readers should be able to:
1. Recognize and perform a comprehensive evaluation of a neonate with a suspected vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM).
2. Differentiate the 3 distinct phenotypes of VGAM, which may present with hemodynamic instability in the neonatal period.
3. Describe treatment differences of VGAM based on specific hemodynamic phenotype.
