ABSTRACT

A case of a newly born girl, borne by cesarean, is presented. Two hours after she was born presented and six hours later seizures refractory at treatment; the diagnosis of parietal intracranial hemorrhage was done. A surgery was performed and it was found an arteriovenous malformation located in the temporary region, that was dried up surgically when the girl had two days of born. Their evolution pos-surgical went quite satisfactory and to the two years its growth and development is normal, without neurological sequels.
