Angiomi cavernosi sovratentoriali ed epilessia: Quale terapia?

Abstract

Most of Authors emphatized the CAs surgical approach. We report twelve cases (7m and 5f) entered into the study upon MRI documentation of supratentorial CAs, neurological examination and EEG. Four have undergone ablative surgery and only 2 have been seizure free. 7 patients under pharmacological treatment alone have undergone a reduction in the frequency and/or severity of epileptic episodes. The present study suggests that CAs surgery is not always reccomended
