Title: Dural cavernous haemangioma of the anterior cranial fossa. Author: Gutiérrez-González R, Casanova-Peño I, Porta-Etessam J, Martínez A, Boto GR. Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2010 Jul; 17(7):936-8. PubMed ID: 20400315. Abstract: Extra-axial cavernous haem angiomas are uncommon lesions histologically identical to cavernomas in other locations. However, their radiological features and clinical behaviour may differ. They are frequently misdiagnosed preoperatively, as they often mimic other tumours. We describe a patient suffering from loss of the sense of smell, due to a cavernous haemangioma implanted in the dura mater of the anterior cranial fossa close to the olfactory bulb. To our knowledge, this is the first patient reported with such a lesion.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
