Although surgery has been recommended as a treatment, the overall estimation of success has not been reported to render outcomes easier to understand in comparison to other treatment modalities.<h4>Objectives</h4>This systematic review of the literature and two cases aims to illustrate the results of surgery as a contemporary treatment option and present a novel anatomical classification system for Sylvian fissure arteriovenous malformations.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>A systematic review was performed by searching MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE and Cochrane electronic bibliographic databases from conception to 2018.
