The case of an adult harboring a vein of Galen arteriovenous malformation (VGAM) is reported. Diagnosis was established by computed tomography (CT) and digital subtraction angiography and confirmed afterwards by transcranial color-coded sonography (TCCS). The patient's course after endovascular treatment was then consecutively monitored by TCCS until complete occlusion was achieved. The results of TCCS were validated by angiography, with which they showed good correlation. Thus, it can be concluded that TCCS may be a useful adjunct to CT and angiography to noninvasively monitor adults with VGAM.
