| Popis: |
Venous angiomas are relatively common lesions that occur in up to 3% of the general population. It is usually asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. We present a case of developmental venous anomaly mimicking thrombosed cerebral vein on nonenhanced computed tomography scan of the brain. A 48-year-old male patient medically free referred to our center for further management of high blood pressure. Because of the concern of thrombosed cerebral vein on computed tomography, further investigation with magnetic resonance venogram revealed a small network of veins in the region of the left internal cerebral vein with a picture of venous angioma. This case highlights such findings for the junior radiologist to consider additional investigations and avoid subsequent inadvertent treatment with anticoagulation. Keywords: Cerebral Vascular malformations, Developmental Venous anomalies |
