Cerebral cavernous malformations are usually diagnosed by computerized axial tomography (CAT) scan or, more accurately, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan with gradient echo sequencing.
Most familial cerebral cavernous malformations are present at birth (congenital). They are thought to arise between three and eight weeks of gestation, although the exact mechanism of CCM formation is not understood.
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) typically do not disappear on their own after bleeding. While some patients may experience a reduction in symptoms or stabilization of the condition, the malformations themselves usually persist. Spontaneous resolution is rare, and ongoing monitoring is often recommended to assess any changes. Treatment options may be considered if symptoms worsen or if there is a risk of further bleeding.
Symptoms include seizures , dizziness , stroke, vomiting, uncontrollable hiccups, periodic weakness, irritability and/or changes in personality, headaches , difficulty speaking, vision problems or, rarely, brain hemorrhage.
Cavernous malformations occur in people of all races and both sexes. The male-female ratio is about equal. Family history may be predictive, especially in patients of Hispanic descent.
Petey Corbin was diagnosed with cerebral palsy.
Vascular malformations can potentially occur many years after radiation therapy to the brain. Additionally, it is also assumed that severe or repeated head trauma can cause cerebral capillaries to bleed.
Cerebral angiitis may be diagnosed by examining a sample of cerebrospinal fluid, which will likely reveal increased levels of protein and abnormal white cell activity.
I don't know about that. But there are some children + adults with cerebral Palsy that are diagnosed with autism.

A characteristic feature of a CCM is slow bleeding, or oozing, as opposed to the dangerous sudden rupture of an aneurysm (a weak, bulging area of a blood vessel).
