Intracranial Cavernomatous Hemangiomas as a Cause of Childhood Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.

A 12-year-old boy presented with complaints of seizures since the age of 7 years. Seizure semiology was consistent with origin from the right temporal lobe. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed a large right temporal and multiple small intracranial cavernomatous hemangiomas. The imaging findings and clinical significance of cavernomatous hemangiomas are briefly discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
