This disorder differs from pure meningeal angiectasis without cerebral infarction and from the classic arteriovenous malformation of the central nervous system with massive systemic shunt, cardiomegaly, and neonatal cardiac failure. Meningocerebral angiodysplasia and renal agenesis appear to form a rare but distinct association.
