Endoscopic Assisted Supra-Cerebellar Trans-Tentorial Approach for Resection of Mesiotemporal Cavernous Malformation
Abstract
We describe the case of a 62-year-old female with multiple cavernous malformations diagnosed during workup of right sided weakness. Her weakness was attributed to the left mesiotemporal cavernous malformation. She initially underwent radiation therapy (RT) for this lesion however developed right sided twitching post-RT. She declined to take anti-epileptic medications and decided to undergo surgical resection. Following resection, she did well neurologically and her seizure like episodes resolved.
