Hello,

These findings indicate a vascular malformation in your brain, which is blood supplied by the brain arteries. You may need embolization, depending on the dimensions and location of the malformation. Sometimes, this type of surgery may be at high risk.
Consulting with a brain surgeon will be needed.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
