Description
Summary:<p>Intraventricular cavernomas (IVC) are rare entities. We report a case of incidentally detected</p><p>intraventricular cavernoma (IVC) in frontal horn of the lateral ventricle in which the diagnosis was</p><p>established by typical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features. The patient has been kept on follow</p><p>up as surgical resection is not recommended in asymptomatic cavernomas. IVC should be considered in</p><p>differentials of intraventricular mass to avoid unnecessary invasive diagnostic procedures and ineffi cient</p><p>management of this benign lesion.</p>
