Cavernous malformations.
Cavernous malformations (CMs) are vascular lesions found in the central nervous system (CNS) and throughout the body and have been called cavernomas, cavernous angiomas, and cavernous hemangiomas. This article discusses the epidemiology, natural history, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of children who are found to harbor these lesions. CMs affect children by causing hemorrhage, seizure, foca...
متن کاملPathology of cavernous malformations
Cerebrovascular malformations are classified as cavernous malformations (CMs), arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) and capillary telangiectasias (CTs). CMs are the second most common form of cerebrovascular malformation and constitute up to 10–15% of the total [1,2]. In the past, CMs were not visualized on radiological examinations such as CT scanning or an...
متن کاملRadiosurgery for cavernous malformations.
The role of radiosurgery for cavernous malformations of the brain remains to be fully defined. We have used Gamma Knife radiosurgery for selected patients with symptomatic, hemorrhagic malformations in high-risk brain locations. Indications, techniques, and results are presented.
متن کاملPET imaging of subclinical seizure associated with intracranial cavernous malformations.
We present the case of a subclinical seizure identified during positron emission tomography with 18-fluorodeoxyglucose in a patient with cavernous malformations.
متن کاملSusceptibility-weighted imaging in familial cerebral cavernous malformations.
A 59-year-old man with a family history of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) presented with focal seizures. T2*-weighted gradient echo (GRE) images showed multiple lesions consistent with cavernous malformations (figure 1). Susceptibility-weighted images (SWI) detected nearly triple the number of lesions than were seen with the GRE sequence (figure 2). SWI is a relatively new MRI technique...
