## TL;DR

This case report describes a rare brain condition involving a large aneurysm within an arteriovenous malformation and emphasizes the need for quick diagnosis and surgery to prevent severe bleeding.

## Contribution

The paper presents a rare clinical case of a giant intranidal aneurysm coexisting with an AVM and highlights the importance of timely surgical intervention.

## Key findings

- A 45-year-old patient presented with symptoms due to a giant intranidal aneurysm within an AVM.
- Prompt surgical intervention was critical to prevent life-threatening hemorrhage and improve outcomes.
- The case underscores the diagnostic and treatment challenges of coexisting AVMs and aneurysms.

## Abstract

The coexistence of intracranial aneurysms and brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and their relationship presents significant diagnostic and treatment difficulties. The existence of an intranidal aneurysm elevates the risk of bleeding and complicates the management strategy. A 45-year-old man arrived with weakness on the right side, difficulty speaking, facial weakness, and a severe headache. This case highlights the significance of timely identification and prompt surgical intervention for giant aneurysms linked with AVMs to avert potentially dangerous hemorrhagic occurrences and enhance patient outcomes.
