Info
A popcorn-like, altered signal intensity lesion involving the left medial frontoparietal regions adjacent to the flax cerebri is noted. The returning signals are hyperintense T2 and FLAIR, and the post-contrast images show no significant enhancement. No perilesional edema is seen. The area is surrounded by a T2 and FLAIR hypointense ring, suggesting a rim of hemosiderin.
Case Discussion
MRI features are of a vascular lesion involving the left frontoparietal region, most likely suggestive of cavernous hemangioma (cavernoma).
