Cerebral multiple glio-vascular dysplasias--a case report

We describe the clinical and neuropathologic features of a patient complaining of increased intracranial pressure lasting over two years. Brain CT showed three cystic lesions in the supratentorial regions. Autopsy disclosed multiple small glio vascular abnormalities, in some instances connected with a cystic cavity. The lesions were scattered throughout the white matter of both cerebral hemispheres and suggested a complex dysplasia.
