[Venous angioma with associated cerebellar haemorrhage]

Venous angiomas are a developmental anomaly in which embryonic venous drainage is still present into adulthood. They are usually asymptomatic and benign course but they can cause seizures and less commonly bleeding, usually associated to cavernous malformation. Normally, treatment is not necessary although bleeding, severe clinical and lesions in which it is possible a favourable approach, we can consider treatment. We show a case of a 11 years old boy with acute decrease level of consciousness. We observed hematoma in the right cerebellar hemisphere with radial tubular structures consistent with developmental venous anomaly. The hematoma was evacuated without a demonstrable other reason justifying the bleeding.
