Overview

Cavernous angioma is usually a benign course since it is a low-flow and low-pressure lesion. Patients with cavernous angioma have variable signs and symptoms, with seizure as the most predominant symptom, followed by hemorrhage and focal neurologic deficit.

Natural History

Once patients become symptomatic, 40-50% present with seizures, 20% present with focal neurologic deficits, and 10-25% present with intracerebral parenchymal hemorrhage.[1]
