Epileptic Seizures at Initial Presentation in Patients with Brain Arteriovenous Malformation
Neurol 78:626-631, Garcin,B.,et al, 2012
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Our study suggests that seizures mainly occur in AVMs with superficial drainage. Other predisposing factors include male sex, increasing AVM size, and frontal lobe and arterial borderzone location. Whether or not interventional treatment has an effect on the long-term risk of epilepsy remains to be determined.
