Overview
Surgery is the mainstay treatment for cavernous angioma. Complete surgical resection should be done to prevent seizures and hemorrhage due to remnant tissue.
Indication
- progressive neurologic deficit
- recurrent hemorrhage
- intractable epilepsy
Surgery
- Surgical resection is the most preferred intervention for cavernous angioma.
- Complete resection is needed as remnant tissue can cause high risk of seizure and hemorrhage.[1]
- Factors that complicate procedure include:
- presence of gliosis
- calcification
- hyaline degeneration [2]
- If seizure surgery occurs, hemosiderin ring should be removed.[3]
