A member asked:

I have had a dvt in the leg previously that i needed a vena cava filter for. now i have a venous angioma of the brain. could they be connected? also

No: Typically not related. The DVT has to do with a hypercoagulable state into which you were born. The venous angioma is another condition your were born with. They seem to be unrelated.

Consider this: The venous angioma may well be congenital, unless was shown never present previously. However, be certain that you do not possess what is termed antiphospholipid antibody syndrome as an explanation for your issues.
