Symptomatic cavernous angiomas present with seizures, mass lesions, or hemorrhage. Microsurgical removal is effective for most patients, offering good outcomes for seven of eight cases.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Cavernous angiomas are vascular malformations that can cause significant neurological symptoms.
  • Diagnosis relies on imaging, but characteristic features are lacking.
  • Symptomatic cases require careful evaluation and management.

Purpose:

  • To present the clinical, radiological, and histopathological features of symptomatic cavernous angiomas.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of microsurgical intervention for these lesions.

Summary:

  • Eight cases of symptomatic cavernous angiomas were reviewed.
  • Presenting symptoms included seizures, mass effect, and intracranial hemorrhage.
  • Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detected lesions, but lacked specific diagnostic criteria.

  • Microsurgery was performed on seven patients, resulting in good outcomes for six.
  • One patient experienced neurological decline post-surgery.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights the diverse clinical presentations of cavernous angiomas.
    • Underscores the diagnostic challenges posed by these lesions.
    • Demonstrates the generally favorable outcomes of microsurgical treatment for symptomatic cavernous angiomas.
