Abstract
Progressive regression of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is a rare phenomenon that may occur spontaneously or after previous surgical or endovascular incomplete obliteration. We present two cases of AVMs occluded partially with Onyx followed by the unexpected cure of the lesions with the angiographic evidences as well as multiannual follow-up.
