    AbstractWe are presenting the case of a 58 year-old woman with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the middle and posterior thirds of the corpus callosum which had produced two episodes of bleeding before admission to our Department, when the patient was neurologically intact. The nidus was fed by the anterior and posterior pericallosal arteries draining through the left medial atrial vein to the vein of Galen, by parasagittal cortical veins to the superior sagittal sinus and by right temporal veins to the sphenoparietal sinus. The patient underwent embolization of the anterior and posterior feeders in two sessions separated by a week interval, and then the AVM was removed through a left paramedial parietooccipital craniotomy in a single stage. The patient showed transient mild short term memory deficit, but the final outcome was excellent.
