They can be found in 0.3\u20130.7% of the population, whereas one fourth of these lesions occur in children. &lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt; In the present study, we report on 16 cases of cavernomas surgically treated in our institute. From each patient\u2019s file, the age, sex, lesion location, symptoms and follow-up were analyzed. &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; The most commonly presenting symptom was epilepsy. Radiological signs of acute hemorrhage were observed in 3 cases. Three children had multiple cavernomas. The parietal lobe was the most common site of occurrence, whereas only 2 cavernomas were infratentorial. There was no operative mortality. Postoperatively, there was no additional neurological deficit, and all patients gradually improved. In a case of pontine cavernoma, there was a need for reoperation due to rebleeding. &lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt; With the improvement of microsurgical techniques and modern neuroimaging, nearly all cavernomas can be safely removed. Total resection is associated with patients\u2019 clinical improvement and seizure control.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000260907","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,11,27]],"date-time":"2009-11-27T21:32:47Z","timestamp":1259357567000},"page":"375-378","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Surgical Management of Brain Cavernomas in Children"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"George A.","family":"Alexiou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Evriviadis","family":"Mpairamidis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"George","family":"Sfakianos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neofytos","family":"Prodromou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,11,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171%2Fjns.1966.24.4.0807"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056%2FNEJM198808113190605"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00270900"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171%2Fjns.1991.75.5.0709"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1528-1157.1994.tb05987.x"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000120776"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171%2Fjns.1998.88.1.0111"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fcncr.10596"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000072472"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054%2Fjocn.2000.0787"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F00006123-198503000-00026"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171%2Fjns.1997.87.2.0190"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F00006123-199510000-00001"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fjnnp.66.5.561"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1052-5149%2802%2900060-6"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FPL00014581"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F00006123-199806000-00007"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1528-1167.2006.00941.x"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.seizure.2007.01.001"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs10072-006-0521-2"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.eplepsyres.2008.07.012"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs00381-007-0465-8"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0303-8467%2801%2900113-5"}],"container-title":["Pediatric Neurosurgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/260907","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/260907","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T21:34:44Z","timestamp":1745444084000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000260907"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2009]]},"references-count":23,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,12,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000260907","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1016-2291","1423-0305"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1016-2291","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0305","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2009]]}}}
