The symptoms separately associated with both intracranial aneurysms and angiomas are well understood and their diagnosis now presents no special problem. Rarely the two lesions may coexist, sometimes with confused symptoms, or, when intracranial haemorrhage is the presenting symptom, with the precise source of haemorrhage in doubt. Walsh and King (1942) recorded the first case of an associated ...

Since the introduction of microscopic techniques, radical surgery for cavernous angiomas has become a recommended treatment option. However, the treatment of motor area cavernous angioma represents a great challenge for the surgical team. Here, we describe an approach guided by frameless neuronavigation and preoperative functional mapping with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), for surgic...

Schwannomas are benign, slow-growing neoplasms of the neural sheaths. They occur rarely in a sublingual location; 9 cases have been reported to our knowledge. We aimed to report the case of a sublingual schwannoma with peculiar morphological features. A 23-year-old woman presented for a right sublingual mass, clinically diagnosed as a vascular malformation. A pleomorphic adenoma was suggested b...

Cobb syndrome, also known as cutaneomeningospinal angiomatosis, first described by Berenbruch in 1890 and reported by Cobb in 1915, is a rare disorder characterized by spinal vascular malformations and a corresponding dermatomal vascular nevus. It usually presents in children and adults as lower extremity weakness, back pain, sensory loss below the affected level, or paralysis. Onset may be acu...

BACKGROUND The association of venous angiomas or developmental venous anomalies (DVA) with transient neurological deficit is rare. We present a rare case of a cerebellar developmental venous anomaly resulting in transient neurological deficits. CASE DESCRIPTION A 58-year-old man with recurrent left sided facial dysesthesia, hemiparesis, and mild difficulty ambulating after exercise. A similar...

Extradural spinal angioma was diagnosed in the lomber region of a patient who referred to neurosurgical clinic with signs and symptoms disc herniation. The venous mass compressing L2-3 roots bilaterally coagulated by bipolar made an uneventuall recovery. This case is reported literature reviewed reiation rarity angiomas difficulties diagnose.

the period of observation. Separate cases were observed seven years after the operation. The operation consists of five steps described in the text and drawn in the attached Table. The steadiness of the therapeutic results obtained, ease of the performance of the operation, the short duration of the postoperative treatment (5-6 days), all these data are, in the author's opinion, sufficient to r...

CONTEXT Hepatopathies can significantly influence both veins and arteries, these changes may cause some cutaneous stigmas, such as spider angioma (SA) and some systemic vascular changes, such as those observed in hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS). Based on this common pathophysiological root we can assume that the SA can be skin markers of HPS. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to assess ...

The cerebral angioma is an arterio-venous communication of congenital origin and in its structure does not differ essentially from similar malformations elsewhere. Their occasional presence in the brain was already known to pathologists nearly Ioo years ago and the first presumptive clinical diagnosis was made in I898. This was in a patient who had a left spastic hemiparesis and a loud bruit, a...
