Cavernous angioma associated with venous angioma--two case reports.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 17-year-old male and a 28-year-old female presented with cavernous angioma and venous angioma colocated in the same region, and manifesting as convulsions. The cavernous angiomas were extirpated without damage to the venous angioma. No postoperative neurological deficits were observed. The patients have been free of convulsions without anticonvulsant medication for 2 years. Early extirpation of cavernous angioma with presentation of venous angioma is recommended, preferably before bleeding occurs.

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...
