Venous Malformations in Childhood: Clinical, Histopathological and Genetics Update
Our knowledge in vascular anomalies has grown tremendously in the past decade with the identification of key molecular pathways and genetic mutations that drive the development of vascular tumors and vascular malformations.

Cavernomas are rare cerebrovascular malformations that usually occur in sporadic forms with solitary lesions located most often in the hemispheric white matter, but also in the infratentorial or spinal region. Multiple lesions at different CNS levels are

Molecular genetics of familial cerebral cavernous malformations [PDF]
✓Cerebral cavernous malformations (CMs) are angiographically occult neurovascular lesions that consist of enlarged vascular channels without intervening normal parenchyma. Cavernous malformations can occur as sporadic or auto-somal-dominant inherited conditions.

Towards a neurocognitive profile in familial cerebral cavernous malformations
Abstract Background Familial cerebral cavernous malformations (FCCM) is a rare autosomal dominant disease, characterized by vascular malformations that can lead to macro and microhemorrhages. The neurocognitive impact of FCCM is still underrecognized.

A novel CCM2 variant in a family with non-progressive cognitive complaints and cerebral microbleeds [PDF]
Lobar cerebral microbleeds are most often sporadic and associated with Alzheimer's disease. The aim of our study was to identify the underlying genetic defect in a family with cognitive complaints and multiple lobar microbleeds and a positive family ...

Familial Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: Pathophysiology, Genetics, Biomarkers, and Treatment Perspectives. [PDF]
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions in the brain caused by inherited genetic mutations in the CCM1/2/3 genes that disrupt normal blood vessel function. This work demonstrates that these mutations lead to endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and iron accumulation, which can be detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ...

Discovery of familial cerebral cavernous malformation in a Saudi population. [PDF]
Familial cerebral cavernous malformation is a rare entity. It has been described commonly among the Hispanic population and sparsely among the Italian, French, Swedish and Chinese populations. We discovered two families with this condition among the Saudi population for the first time.
