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.

What is cavernous malformation in the left parietal lobe?

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).
