  • Title: Management of the pregnant patient with a cerebral venous angioma: a report of two cases.
    Author: Rubin SM, Jackson GM, Cohen AW.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1991 Nov; 78(5 Pt 2):929-31. PubMed ID: 1923231.
    Abstract:
    Though there is a large body of knowledge regarding the management of pregnant women with arterial lesions in the central nervous system, little information is available on venous malformations. We report our experience with two pregnant patients with cerebral venous angiomas. These lesions are usually asymptomatic and only rarely cause seizures or subarachnoid hemorrhage. Based on our experience and literature review, we suggest that patients with venous angiomas without a history of hemorrhage can safely undergo labor and vaginal delivery.
