✓ A case of a cavernous angioma of the cauda equina is presented. The patient was a 28-year-old man who experienced sudden low-back pain and headache without neurological symptoms. Lumbar puncture revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage. He had suffered a similar episode 3 years previously. Selective spinal angiography did not demonstrate any abnormal vascularity. Metrizamide myelography and magnetic resonance imaging were useful in demonstrating the presence of a tumor. Laminectomy at L1–3 and total removal of the tumor were performed without neurological deficit.

Abstract A case of intramedullary cavernous angioma of the upper cervical spinal cord, initially associated with trigeminal neuralgia, is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging precisely depicted the entire extent of the lesion. The angioma was totally removed and the operation was successful in relieving the patient of neuralgia. The previously reported 23 cases of intramedullary cavernous angiomas are reviewed, and the clinical symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of this rare condition are discussed.

We present the case of a 47-year-old man with left exophthalmus. MRI showed a left intraorbital intraconal cavernous malformation, located in the superoesternal quadrant and medially displacing the optic nerve. An endoscopic transpalpebral approach was performed and total removal was achieved after dissection of the lesion from the optic nerve and other orbital structures. Pathology confirmed the diagnosis of cavernous malformation. The patient was discharged neurologically intact on the second postoperative day free of complications. Follow-up MRI demonstrated radical resection of the cavernoma and resolution of the exophthalmus with an excellent esthetic result.The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/o1a1tneZ6qk.

The cavernous angioma is a vascular malformation that can affect various organs, and its location in the spinal cord is unusual. We report a case of a pregnant patient who presented with pain in the lower limbs and urinary retention, diagnosed with cavernous angioma of the spinal cord and treated with surgical excision. Our case highlights this rare pathology and its initial presentation during pregnancy.
