Supratentoryal ve infratentoryal yerleşimli multiple kavernom olgusu

Serebral kavernöz hemanjiomlar vasküler yapıların nadir görülen malformasyonlarındandır.Sporadik formda lezyonlar genellikle tek iken, lezyonların multipl olması daha çok familyal tipterastlanılan bir durumdur. Semptomatik hastalar başağrısı, epileptik nöbet, fokal nörolojik defisit,hemoraji veya bunların kombinasyonu ile hastaneye başvururlar. Bizim olgumuz multiplesupratentoryal lezyonların yanı sıra infratentoryal tutulumun da birlikte görülmesi ve multiplekavernom olmasına rağmen herediter geçişli olmaması nedeniyle literatürdeki sunumlardanfarklılık göstermektedir.

A case of multiple cavernoma located supratentorial and inf ratentorial

Cerebral cavernous hemangiomas are rarely seen malformations of vascular stuctures. Whilesporadic forms usually single lesions, multiple lesions are more common familial type of situation.Symptomatic patients with headache, epileptic seizure, focal neurological deficits, hemorrhage, orcombinations of these apply to the hospital. Our case differs from the cases presented in theliterature, because it has infratentorial involvement beside multiple supratentorial lesions and ourcase with multiple cavernoma is not hereditary.
