    AbstractNear-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a noninvasive monitor of regional brain tissue oxygenation, and jugular venous oximetry (SjvO2) is a monitor of global cerebral oxygenation. We report the role of intraoperative multimodal monitoring of cerebral oxygenation in the anesthetic management of a patient with grade III intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) presenting for surgical excision. Real-time monitoring of cerebral oxygenation is of much relevance in high-grade AVMs where anesthetic management is focused on neuroprotection and prevention of cerebral hypoxia. Besides, it also helps in prediction, early detection, and judicious management of perioperative complications, which are commonly encountered in high-grade AVMs.
