A severe case of astrogliosis and encephalomalacia in a neonate with a massive vein of Galen malformation (VGM)

Vein of Galen malformations (VGMs) are rare anomalies of intracranial circulation that constitute 1% of all intracranial vascular malformations. We describe a case of severe encephalomalacia associated with a VGM, which has not been previously described.
