Cavernous angiomas of the brain stem

F Isamat et al. Neurosurg Clin N Am. 1993 Jul.

Abstract

Cavernous angiomas in contact with the pial or ependymal surfaces of the brain stem can be totally and safely resected. Such an approach is recommended for symptomatic patients. For asymptomatic patients whose lesions are deeply embedded in the parenchyma, close observation without surgical intervention is recommended.
