Cerebral cavernous angiomas are vascular anomalies with dilated spaces. We report the case of rare double cavernous angiomas causing higher brain dysfunction. A 74-year-old man exhibited cognitive dysfunction. Magnetic resonance imaging showed two tumors with hemorrhage in the left frontal lobe. Preoperative diagnosis was hemorrhage caused by cavernous angiomas. A 3D model of the double cavernous angioma was made to confirm their association with cortical veins and tumors. Tumors were removed using a single small corticotomy. This is the first report of a rare double cavernous angioma and the 3D printed model facilitated removal of the tumors.
脑海绵状血管瘤是一种具有扩张间隙的血管异常。我们报告了一例罕见的导致高级脑功能障碍的双海绵状血管瘤病例。一名74岁男性出现认知功能障碍。磁共振成像显示左额叶有两个伴有出血的肿瘤。术前诊断为海绵状血管瘤引起的出血。制作了双海绵状血管瘤的3D模型以确认它们与皮质静脉和肿瘤的关联。通过单次小的皮质切开术切除肿瘤。这是关于罕见双海绵状血管瘤的首例报告,3D打印模型有助于肿瘤的切除。
