A case of an intracranial cavernous angioma, which presented with headaches and seizures in a pregnant patient, is described. Diagnosis was established with magnetic resonance imaging. A computer-assisted literature search uncovered no previously reported case of intracranial cavernous angioma
Until recently intracranial cavernous angiomas were thought to be rare vascular malformations that usually presented in adulthood as an intracerebral hemorrhage, an expanding mass lesion, or with the new onset of seizures. Prior to the advent of computed tomography (CT), and more recently magnetic
The postoperative outcomes and the predictors of seizure control are poorly studied for supratentorial cavernous angiomas (CA) within or close to the eloquent brain area.To assess the predictors of preoperative seizure control, postoperative seizure We report on a six-year-old girl with frequent partial seizures secondary to multiple cavernous angiomas (CAs) since the age of 17 months. MRI showed two CAs in the left parietal and right frontal lobes. Ictal scalp video EEG demonstrated complex partial seizures of left hemispheric origin,
Purpose: A patient with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and a left temporal cavernous angioma (CA) presented with treatment-resistant epilepsy. We evaluated the patient to determine the best treatment option.
OBJECTIVE
Patients operated on for supratentorial cavernous angiomas were studied to define the incidence and the course of seizures in their clinical history. Electroclinical and neuroradiological data were correlated with the location of cavernomas. The impact of lesionectomy on the outcome of
Cavernous angiomas are vascular malformations that cause neurodegeneration and symptoms including epileptiform seizures, headache, and motor deficits. Following neurosurgical removal of the angiomas, patients mostly recover well and become seizure-free. This study reports on the levels of certain
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to establish a treatment strategy for patients with cavernous angiomas and have seizures.
METHODS
We analyzed retrospectively 31 patients with cavernous angiomas presenting with seizures. Of the 31 patients, 15 (11 men, 4 women) had been treated medically (the
A man aged 26 years had been subject to frequent transient episodes of left homonymous hemianopia, initially accompanied by visual hallucinations and left miosis, since the age of 8 years. These partial seizures recurred 3 to 30 times each month in spite of treatment with anticonvulsant medication.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the reason that one-quarter to one-third of epileptic women experienced an increased number of seizures during pregnancy. The cause of this increase is not always clearly understood and the principle emphasis of the literature is on the pregnancy-associated changes of
Thirteen cases of large cerebral angiomas were followed up for a long time. The authors report on epileptic seizures and point out that epilepsy appears in large malformations, whereas small ones are mostly associated with hemorrhage. The authors describe the clinical picture of every case and the
Cerebral venous angioma is a congenital anomaly of the medullary vein, the vessel that drains into the transparenchymal venous stem. This lesion is also referred to as a developmental venous anomaly. A few reports in the literature have documented developmental venous anomaly-related epilepsy,
BACKGROUND
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are angiographically occult vascular malformations of the central nervous system. As a result of hemorrhage and mass effect, patients may present with focal neurologic deficits, seizures, and other symptoms necessitating treatment. Once symptomatic,
The aim of this study is to determine surgical outcomes and factors affecting seizure outcomes in patients who harbor supratentorial cavernous angiomas presenting with seizures. Sixty patients were classified into the intractable epilepsy group (n=22) and the sporadic seizure group (n=38) and then
A large vascular malformation of the supraorbital and scalp areas was present in an adolescent girl who had seizures and headaches. Removal of the malformation included the outer table of the skull. The patient has had no seizures during a two-year follow-up.
