متن کاملThalamic cavernous angioma: paraculminar supracerebellar infratentorial transtentorial approach for the safe and complete surgical removal.
BACKGROUND The thalamic cavernous angioma (CA) represents a neurosurgical challenge because of the critical neurologic functions of the thalamus and its surrounding structures and of their deep location inside the brain. Although the natural history of the thalamic CA remains undefined, several studies suggest the poor outcome of those patients especially if the symptomatic thalamic CA is treat...
متن کاملVenous Angioma, Cavernous Angioma, and Hemorrhage
In this issue of AJNR, Wilms et al ( 1) add to the ongoing debate whether the venous angioma, more recently called developmental venous anomaly (2), can be symptomatic, whether it alone can bleed, or whether such hemorrhage occurs because of the concomitant occurrence of a cavernous angioma . This debate is not just semantic. It is essential to pathophysiologic understanding of a given lesion s...

Third ventricular cavernous angiomas are rare vascular malformations of the brain. We report an eight-year old boy with a rare third ventricular cavernous angioma that hemorrhaged presenting with symptoms of acute hydrocephalus. Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed a heterogenous ill-defined, solid and cystic intraventricular mass in the third ventricle which was...
