Developmental venous anomaly (DVA)/ Cerebral Venous Angioma is the most common type of cerebral vascular malformations, mostly an incidental benign finding. But there are documented associated complications like parenchymal signal abnormalities, thrombosis, cavernous malformations and atrophy.
 In this report, we present a unique case DVA with cortical changes mimicking Glioma. Altered hae...

OBJECTIVE To describe a case of adrenal cavernous hemangioma in a 67 year old man who presented left lumbar pain. METHODS Abdominal ultrasound, contrast enhanced ultrasound of the lesion, abdominal-pelvic CT scan, and then left adrenalectomy and pathology were performed RESULTS Imaging studies showed a large solid-cystic mass with 12 × 11 cm diameters in the left adrenal gland, well defined...

A case is presented in which a complex multicystic hemosiderin-containing lesion developed adjacent to a previously documented developmental venous anomaly (venous angioma). This lesion had the characteristic MR imaging appearance of a cavernous malformation. Follow-up MR imaging demonstrated a decrease in both the size and complexity of this lesion, which suggests at least a portion of the les...

OBJECTIVES We investigated the imaging features of Cavernous angioma (CA) lesions and the value of Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) by comparing with T2*-weighted gradient echo (GRE) sequences in patients with familial CA disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 19 familial CA patients (8 men, 11 women; mean age, 36 years). T1-weighted, T2-weighted, T2*-weighted GRE, an...

Intramuscular cavernous Haemangiomas represent less than 1% of all haemangiomas and consist of benign proliferations of blood vessels. Typical presentation is an enlarging painful soft-tissue mass without cutaneous changes. We diagnosed a series of 5 cases of cavernous haemangioma of the masseteric muscle presenting as an asymptomatic unilateral swelling. The rarity of a cavernous haemangioma i...
