Summary:

"Cavernous malformations are highly variable and seemingly random vascular anomalies that occur in every possible size, shape, and location in the central nervous system. This variability makes it difficult to envision the spectrum of disease caused by these lesions within a simplified framework. The creation of a taxonomy to organize cavernomas by neuroanatomical location and morphology brings order to an otherwise chaotic disease spectrum. The taxonomy defines seven cavernoma types and 35 subtypes and organizes them into a classification system that guides surgical strategy and patient management."-- Provided by publisher.
