Abstract
The cavernoma is a vascular malformation of the central nervous sistem. It is characterized by sinusoidal capillaries that contain blood and poor circulation. The cavernomas vary in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters. Is a rare pathological entity present in 0.5% of the population. Most of them are asymptomatic, however, due to their anatomical features blood leakage into surrounding tissue can cause severe neurological symptoms. Although risk of bleeding is low, symptomatic lesions should be treated with microsurgical resection being the therapy of choice for surgically accesible cavernomas. We present a case of a 46 year old male patient with a cavernous malformation in septum pellucidum of right lateral ventricle.
