Giant cerebellar cavernomas in children are rare and must be differentiated from hemorrhagic cerebellar tumors. The diagnosis and treatment of giant cerebellar cavernomas is challenging, but complete surgical resection can lead to favorable outcomes and complete neurological recovery in most cases. We present a case of eight months old baby who was diagnosed with a giant cavernoma resulting in secondary obstructive hydrocephalus with neuropsychiatric presentations. The patient underwent a paramedian craniotomy surgery with a suboccipital approach and complete surgical resection of the cavernoma was done...

BACKGROUND: Familial cerebral cavernous malformations (FCCM) is a rare autosomal dominant disease, characterized by vascular malformations that can lead to macro and microhemorrhages. The neurocognitive impact of FCCM is still underrecognized. METHODS: We report the clinical, neurocognitive, imaging and genetic data of a three generation family with FCCM. RESULTS: A 63-year-old man (proband) had progressive memory impairment since the last year...

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Cavernous malformations are congenital or acquired vascular abnormalities. They are uncommon entities with an incidence of 0.5 % of the general population and usually are unnoticed until a hemorrhagic event occurs. Cerebellar cavernomas (CCMs) account for 1.2 to 11.8 % of all intracranial cases and 9.3 to 52.9 % of all infratentorial cases. Cavernomas can be concurrently seen with developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) in 20 % (range 20 %-40 %) of cases, in which case they are known as mixed vascular malformations...

OBJECTIVE: Surgical indications for cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) remain significantly center- and surgeon-dependent; available grading systems are potentially limited, as they do not include epileptologic and radiologic data. Several experienced authors proposed a new grading system for CCM and the first group of patients capable of providing its statistical validation was analyzed. METHODS: A retrospective series of 289 CCMs diagnosed between 2008 and 2021 was collected in a shared anonymous database among 9 centers...

Surgical indications for cerebral cavernous malformations remain significantly center- and surgeon-dependent. Available grading systems are potentially limited, as they do not include epileptological and radiological data. A novel grading system is proposed for supratentorial and cerebellar cavernomas: it considers neuroradiological features (bleeding, increase in size), neurological status (focal deficits and seizures), location of the lesion and age of the patient. The score ranges from -1 to 10; furthermore, surgery should be considered when a score of 4 or higher is present...

INTRODUCTION: Giant cavernomas (GCMs) are angiographically occult vascular malformations of the central nervous system measuring at least 4 cm in diameter. These are rare lesions, especially in the cerebellum. As such, the clinical and radiologic features, surgical management, and outcomes of treatment for this condition are unknown. METHODS: We performed a systematic review of SCOPUS and PubMed databases for case reports and case series of histopathologically proven GCMs arising from the cerebellum in the pediatric population, and included a case managed at our center...

BACKGROUND: The use of endoscopes in neurosurgery is well established, but the integration of a full high definition signaling, 45° angled endoscopic tool into a digital surgical microscope, is new. We report our first experiences in a cadaveric study and a clinical case series using the new microinspection tool QEVO® that serves as a plug-in feature for the recently launched KINEVO 900 digital visualization platform (CARL ZEISS MEDITEC, Oberkochen, Germany). For illustration purposes, we offer video footage...

A clinical-neuropsychological study using Luria's method has been conducted in 13 patients with arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and 12 patients with cerebellar cavernomas and hematomas. The syndromes were similar to lesions of the large hemisphere cortex, more often of premoter regions and less often of the cortex of posterior hemispheric regions. After a surgery on the right cerebellar hemisphere, some patients had perseverations and micrographia in writing. These syndromes were principal similar with findings described in the literature...

An 83-year-old woman was admitted for investigation of sudden loss of vision. Extensive plum-purple papules and nodules involved her skin and lips but not mucosae. A cutaneous biopsy demonstrated irregular vascular cavernous channels in the dermis and subcutis; deeper vessels displayed smooth muscle. Blue rubber bleb naevus syndrome was diagnosed. This patient had no gastrointestinal symptoms, no family history of blue rubber bleb naevus syndrome, and only developed cutaneous signs after 60 years of age. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain found multiple cerebral and cerebellar cavernomas with two larger foci of haemorrhage in both occipital lobes, with the largest in the right occipital lobe being associated with calcification...
