Dural venous malformation is a rare fetal cerebrovascular involvement, but represents the most frequently diagnosed cerebral thrombotic event during fetal life. We present the evolution of a case of dural venous malformation with thrombosis through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
controls from prenatal to postnatal period, which proves its complete spontaneous resolution. It is essential to recognize this entity and its prognostic factors, since it describes the possibility of spontaneous resolution with conservative management, as shown in the case documented here.
