"Giant" venous angioma?
So i got the results from my follow-up mra/mrv scan and the radiology impression is as follows:
"Giant venous angioma in left side of brain extending along the left side of the septum pellucidum and along the body of the left lateral ventricle to drain into the left internal cerebral vein. This lesion is mainly of importance should the patient have a traumatic event or should the patient ever require intraventricular intracranial pressure monitoring, or a ventricular shunt. A puncture to this vessel could lead to some serious complications and a neurosurgeon should be made aware of this preexisting condition."
Any idea what this means? lol...like..."giant?" exactly how big is a 'giant' venous angioma?
In the meantime, Im being sent to see a neurosurgeon and movement disorder specialist in the coming weeks.
Thanks for any help/thoughts/input!
