Hemangiomas of the Pons

Giant Cerebral Capillary Telangiectasis in an Infant

“…The scattered reports on symptomatic telangiectases found in the liter ature concern adult patients with intracranial bleeding [8,12,14] or progressive brain stem symptoms [3][4][5], Slow evolution of clinical symptoms in some vascular hamartomas is explained by the progressive enlargement of the component vascular spaces. Russell and Rubinstein [13] suggested that this autonomous growth might be based on phases of raised blood pressure, with the possibility of further implication of vessels in the immediate neighborhood.…”

Posterior Fossa AVM Producing Hemifacial Spasm: A Case Report

“…They may simulate multiple sclerosis. 39 Other treatment modalities were equally discouraging. Angiographers have been recently treating AVMs by injecting particulate emboli and plastics in an attempt to occlude the blood supply.…”

Spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage in patients suspected of multiple sclerosis

“…There are several reports of large AVM presenting with a remitting course (Martin, 1951;Hierons, 1953;Teilmann, 1953;Verbiest, 1960-61); this clinical picture is rarer with small AVM. The case of Lindheimer and Barrows (1962), in which recurrent episodes of pontine dysfunction occurred in a 43 year old woman over an 18 month period, most resembles ours.…”
