NIH Rare Diseases: Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are collections of small blood vessels (capillaries) in the brain that are enlarged and irregular in structure which lead to altered blood flow. Cavernous malformations can occur anywhere in the body, but usually produce serious signs and symptoms only when they occur in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). Cavernous malformations in the brain and/or spinal cord are called cerebral cavernous malformations. Approximately 25 percent of individuals with cerebral cavernous malformations never experience any related medical problems. Other people with cerebral cavernous malformations may experience serious symptoms such as headaches, seizures, paralysis, hearing or vision deficiencies, and bleeding in the brain (cerebral hemorrhage). These malformations can change in size and number over time, but they do not become cancerous. This condition can be sporadic or it can be inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Mutations in the KRIT1(CCM1), CCM2, and PDCD10 (CCM3) genes cause cerebral cavernous malformation.30
MalaCards: Cerebral Cavernous Malformations, also known as cerebral cavernous malformation, is related to cerebral cavernous malformation, familial and cerebral cavernous malformations-1. An important gene associated with Cerebral Cavernous Malformations is CCM2 (cerebral cavernous malformation 2), and among its related pathways are Long-term depression and Phosphatases. The drugs interferon alfa-2a and interferon alfa 2-b and the compounds (2S,3S,4E,6E,8S,9S)-3-amino-9-methoxy-2,6,8-trimethyl-10-phenyldeca-4,6-dienoic acid and 2,6,8-Trimethyl-3-Amino-9-Benzyl-9-Methoxynonanoic Acid have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, cortex and spinal cord. NINDS: A cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a collection of small blood vessels (capillaries) in the central nervous system (CNS) that is enlarged and irregular in structure.31 Genetics Home Reference: Cerebral cavernous malformations are collections of small blood vessels (capillaries) in the brain that are enlarged and irregular in structure. These capillaries have abnormally thin walls, and they lack other support tissues, such as elastic fibers, which normally make them stretchy. As a result, the blood vessels are prone to leakage, which can cause the health problems related to this condition. Cavernous malformations can occur anywhere in the body, but usually produce serious signs and symptoms only when they occur in the brain and spinal cord (which are described as cerebral).17 Wikipedia: Cavernous hemangioma is a type of blood vessel malformation (hemangioma) that has relatively large...44 more... |
