Our reported case adds to current limited knowledge of this rare entity in the pediatric age group, which is traditionally treated aggressively and urgently. Our case demonstrated temporal stability of this lesion with no detrimental complications observed. This suggests that the outcome of pial AVFs with conservative treatment may not be as grim as previously thought.
