Core Tip

Core Tip: This case report details the rare co-occurrence of oligodendroglioma and arteriovenous malformation in a 61-year-old male. Preoperative multimodal imaging, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, digital subtraction angiography, and computed tomography angiography, was crucial in accurately diagnosing the combined pathology, guiding the successful surgical removal. This study underscores the importance of comprehensive imaging to prevent misdiagnosis and highlights the feasibility of craniotomy for treating this rare condition.
