Cerebral cavernous malformations associated to meningioma: High penetrance in a novel family mutated in the PDCD10 gene [PDF]
Multiple familial meningiomas occur in rare genetic syndromes, particularly neurofibromatosis type 2. The association of meningiomas and cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) has been reported in few patients in the medical literature.

Readmissions in Patients with Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCMs): A National Readmission Database (NRD) Study [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDCerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are microvascular CNS lesions prone to hemorrhage leading to neurological sequela such as stroke and seizure. A subset of CCM patients have aggressive disease leading to multiple bleeding events, likely resulting multiple hospitalizations.

Zebrafish models of cerebrovascular disease [PDF]
Perturbations in cerebral blood flow and abnormalities in blood vessel structure are the hallmarks of cerebrovascular disease. While there are many genetic and environmental factors that affect these entities through a heterogeneous group of disease ...

Cerebral Glioblastoma Mimicking a Cavernous Malformation: A Case Report and Literature Review
Glioblastomas are highly malignant and invasive brain tumors. Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular diseases of congenital and occult vascular dysplasia, which may arise sporadically or may be inherited due to autosomal dominant condition.

Recent insights into cerebral cavernous malformations: animal models of CCM and the human phenotype [PDF]
Cerebral cavernous malformations are common vascular lesions of the central nervous system that predispose to seizures, focal neurologic deficits and potentially fatal hemorrhagic stroke. Human genetic studies have identified three genes associated with the disease and biochemical studies of these proteins have identified interaction partners and ...

Untreated cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) – impact on quality of life
Objective: To estimate health related quality of life (QOL) with the diagnosis of an untreated cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) and to analyze possible influencing factors. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study based on our prospective uni-center CCM database (2017-2018), using standardized[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]

Defective autophagy is a key feature of cerebral cavernous malformations
Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a major cerebrovascular disease affecting approximately 0.3–0.5% of the population and is characterized by enlarged and leaky capillaries that predispose to seizures, focal neurological deficits, and fatal ...
