A member asked:
Dx with epilepsy 2 yrs ago mri showed angioma until recent no changes now showing chronic gliosis should i be concerned? what does this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cavernoma brain: In some cases cavernoma may be the focus of epilepsy. If this is proved by c, linical picture and various tests - this can be treated surgically. In current situation if the lesion is stable and unchanged it can be monitored at regular intervals for years to come . Gliosis probably represents temporal change and has questionable significance.
