A case of cerebellar arteriovenous malformation (AVM) during pregnancy is reported. A 26-year-old primigravida had cerebellar hemorrhage at 32 weeks of gestation. She was conservatively controlled until term with a good outcome accomplished by elective cesarean section. AVM in the left cerebellar hemisphere was confirmed by angiography after delivery and successfully removed. Here we present a review of AVM during pregnancy and a few case reports of cerebellar AVM-complicated pregnancy published in available literatures.
