A cavernous malformation or also called cavernous angioma or cavernous hemangioma or cavernoma is a malformation in the capillaries, and when located in the brain or spine (nervous system) may bleed and in turn can cause neurological deficits. The shape of this malformation resembles that of a raspberry/ These neurological deficits may be headaches, dizziness, double vision, memory issues etc. This is also dependent on the location of the malformation as well as the size of the lesion and size of the bleed. Many people that have a cavernous malformation will never know they have them because they remain asymptomatic.
There are people that have one cavernous malformation in what is called the sporadic form of the disease, while others have multiple cavernous malformations due to a genetic mutation in one of tree genes (ccm1, ccm2, and ccm3).

Central sulcus separates which lobes?
it seperates the parietal from the frontal lobe, also it seperates the primary motor lobe from the primary somatosensory cortex.
Which lobe primarily controls the sense of touch?
The parietal lobes are the main parts of the brain that induce the sense of touch.
What neurotransmitter might the parietal lobe use and why?
The neurotransmitter used by the parietal lobe is acetylcholine.
Name four main lobes of the cerebrum?
The four lobes of the human brain are: 1) The Frontal Lobe 2) The Parietal Lobe 3) The Temporal Lobe 4) The Occipital Lobe
What lobes are in the cerebrum?
The lobes of the Cerebrum are frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe and the temporal lobe.
Which lobe is the somatosensory area located?
Parietal lobe
Four main area of the brain?
frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and the temporal lobe
Central sulcus separates which lobes?
it seperates the parietal from the frontal lobe, also it seperates the primary motor lobe from the primary somatosensory cortex.
What would happen if stroke occured in left parietal lobe?
the sufferer would have issues with math and spatial reasoning, the two things the parietal lobe is responsible for.
What part of the brain does maths?
The left parietal lobe
Which lobe primarily controls the sense of touch?
The parietal lobes are the main parts of the brain that induce the sense of touch.
In which area of the brain does mathematical processing mostly occur?
left parietal lobe
What neurotransmitter might the parietal lobe use and why?
The neurotransmitter used by the parietal lobe is acetylcholine.
Which part of the brain is affeted by math?
I think it's the parietal lobe. This is because acalculia is an acquired inability to make simple mathematiacal calculations and a definite sympton of it is disease in the parietal lobe. Most likely to be the left side of the brain of the parietal lobe. A deduction though.Hope this helped,-Drew
