Arteriovenous malformations usually do not present any diagnostic difficulty on the angiograms. However, small cryptic and cavernous angiomas cannot be demonstrated directly by arteriography because of either sluggish circulation or thrombosis. The present communication documents a relatively rare case of histologically proven cavernous angioma with a hypervascular pattern on the arteriogram.
A case of cerebral fungal granuloma with histological evidence of vasculitis is reported and the literature briefly reviewed. The value of surgery and chemotherapy for this entity which cured the patient without any sequelae of the disease process or chemotherapeutic agent is emphasized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
