A 41-year-old woman presented with a small occipital arteriovenous malformation (AVM) manifesting as headache. Cerebral angiography showed an AVM in the right occipital lobe fed by the right temporooccipital artery and draining into the superior sagittal sinus and right transverse sinus. Single photon emission computed tomography showed the steal phenomenon in the ipsilateral temporal cortex fed by the main feeding artery preoperatively, and hyperperfusion in the same cortex after removal of
