Cavernous malformations of the brainstem.
In 1966, McCormick categorized nonneoplastic vascular malformations of the central nervous system into four types: arteriovenous malformations, venous angiomas, capillary telangiectasias, and cavernous malformations (CM).23 In the 4 decades since this original classification, significant work has been done to characterize the epidemiology, pathogenesis, natural history, proper management, and p...
متن کاملPetrosal approaches to brainstem cavernous malformations.
OBJECT Although they provide excellent ventral and lateral exposure of the brainstem, petrosal approaches to brainstem cavernous malformations (CMs) are infrequently reported. METHODS The authors reviewed their experience with petrosal approaches to brainstem CMs in combination with a comprehensive review of the literature to elucidate resection rates, complication rates, and outcomes. RESU...
متن کاملBrainstem cavernous malformations: a review with two case reports.
Central nervous system (CNS) cavernous malformations (CMs) are developmental malformations of the vascular bed with a highly variable clinical course due to their dynamic nature. We present one case of 'de novo' brainstem cavernous malformation after radiation therapy adding to the increasing number of reported cases in the medical literature, and the case of a pregnant patient with symptomatic...
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 کاملCavernous 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...
