Summary
Since the availability of CT diagnostis 23 cases of intraventricular cavernous angioma (IVCA) have been published in the literature. Three additional cases have been operated upon in our Department. Based on these 26 cases the clinical data, radiological findings, treatment and outcome of IVCAs are reviewed.
