Excerpt

Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) are the second most common incidental vascular finding on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) [5]. The risk of hemorrhagic events is higher for people with CCMs with prior bleed, as well as for those presenting with brainstem CCMs [4]. Cavernous malformations located within eloquent areas pose specific risk of microsurgical resection, related both to surgical approach and corridor, as well as resection of the lesion and hemosiderin rim itself. …
