Cavernous Hemangioma of the Retina, Cutaneous Angiomas, and Intracranial Vascular Lesion by Computed Tomography and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Angiomatosis retinae

“…Kavernçse Hämangiome sind von großer differenzialdiagnostischer Bedeutung zum VHL-Syndrom, da auch zerebrale und kutane Tumoren zusätzlich zu den retinalen oder chorioidalen kavernçsen Hämangiomen auftreten kçnnen, die ebenfalls autosomal dominant vererbt werden kçnnen [108]. Die kavernç-sen Hämangiome sind zu den neuro-okulo-kutanen Phakomatosen zu rechnen [32,42,125]. Laberge-Le Couteulx et al [63] stellten eine KRIT-1-Mutation bei einer 34-jährigen Frau mit zerebralen und retinalen kavernçsen Hämangiomen fest.…”

A case of central visual loss in a child due to macular cavernous haemangioma of the retina

“…Vascular cavernous haemangioma of the brain can present as seizures, progressive neurological deficits and haemorrhage or hydrocephalus. As dominant inheritance has been reported, it is also important to examine first‐degree relatives (Schwartz et al. 1984; Dellemijn & Vanneste 1993).…”

“…Cavernous haemangioma of the retina (CHR) is a rare disease that has been reported to occur either sporadically or as a dominantly inherited trait (Gass 1971; Messmer et al. 1983; Schwartz et al. 1984; Backhouse & O'Neill 1998).…”

“…Only occasionally have systemic associations been reported in the form of vascular abnormalities predominantly located in the temporal lobe of the brain, or in the skin (Dellemijn & Vanneste 1993; Goldberg et al. 1979; Schwartz et al. 1984).…”
