What causes a cavernoma? In most cases, there's no clear reason why a person develops a cavernoma. The condition can sometimes run in families – less than 50% of cases are thought to be genetic. But in most cases cavernomas occur randomly.
Does cavernoma go away?
The malformations probably form before or shortly after birth. Some may seem to appear and disappear over time on follow-up MRI scans. About 25% of people with cavernous malformations in the brain never have symptoms.
How serious is a cavernoma?
Cavernomas can occur in the brain and on the spinal cord. While a cavernous angioma may not affect function, it can cause seizures, stroke symptoms, hemorrhages, and headaches.
