Cerebral cavernous malformations: spectrum of neuroradiological findings.
Cavernous malformations (cavernomas) are hamartomatous lesions formed by sinusoidal vascular spaces, with no cerebral parenchyma between them. Seizures are the most usual clinical presentation. They are dynamic lesions, producing changes throughout their evolution. The majority are located in the supratentorial region, but up to 20% of cases they are found in the posterior fossa. In computed to...
متن کاملFunctional and topographical considerations in the surgical management of cerebral vascular malformations
Cerebral vascular malformations with potential surgical consequences mainly consist of arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and cavernous malformations. The standard preoperative workup of these lesions includes basic neuroradiological investigation, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and magnetic resonance angiography, and conventional angiography, to assess the exact ...
متن کاملCerebral cavernous malformations: serial magnetic resonance imaging findings in patients with and without gamma knife surgery.
To classify the cerebral cavernous malformations and to investigate the natural history of cavernous malformations according to the classification, 41 patients with 61 cavernous malformations (40 cavernous malformations from 22 patients treated with gamma knife surgery) were regularly followed up using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for a mean period of 25.5 months in treated cavernous malform...
متن کاملIncreased number of white matter lesions in patients with familial cerebral cavernous malformations.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Familial cerebral cavernous malformations, an autosomal dominant disorder, result in excess morbidity and mortality in affected patients. The disorder is most prevalent in the Southwest United States, where the affected families are most often carriers of the CCM1-KRIT1 Common Hispanic Mutation. The brain and spinal cord parenchyma in these individuals is usually affected...
متن کاملProspective Hemorrhage Rates of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations in Children and Adolescents Based on MRI Appearance.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current classifications of cerebral cavernous malformations focus solely on morphologic aspects. Our aim was to provide a morphologic classification that reflects hemorrhage rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively categorized 355 cavernous malformations of 70 children and adolescents according to their morphologic appearance on MR imaging and calculated prospect...
