Abstract
- Venous angioma is normally asymptomatic, but it can present with clinical presentations such as seizures, headache, and focal neurological deficits. Brain hemorrhage is known to be the most common complication, with nonhemorrhagic brain infarction due to venous angioma being very rare. We report the first case of supratentorial venous angioma complicated by nonhemorrhagic venous infarction. This case occurred in a 49-year-old female, and was confirmed by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging including contrast-enhanced MR venography and perfusion imaging.
