Treatment of ophthalmofacial-hypothalamic arteriovenous malformation (Bonnet-Dechaume-Blanc syndrome). Case report

J Neurosurg. 1985 Nov;63(5):794-6. doi: 10.3171/jns.1985.63.5.0794.

Abstract

A 17-year-old girl with unilateral blindness and exophthalmos was found to have Bonnet-Dechaume-Blanc syndrome without retinal arteriovenous communications. The arteriovenous malformation was managed by combined intracranial resection, ophthalmic artery ligation, and selective embolization of the external carotid component.
