case_images: MRI showed a 3-cm lesion with heterogeneous signal intensity and no contrast enhancement suggestive of cavernoma (Fig. 1). She remained asymptomatic with no recurrence after 1 year (Fig. 1).
case_images: a Neuroendoscopic view of the CA. b, c CA relationship to adjacent anatomical structures. d Microsurgical view of the septum pellucidum after lesion removal (arrow). CA, cavernous angioma; SV, septal vein; C, clot; TSV, thalamostriate vein; CP, choroid plexus; FM, foramen of Monro.

case_images: After the inspection of the cavernoma and the surrounding ventricular structures (Fig. 2), the Gaab endoscope was withdrawn and the cortical trajectory temporarily closed with a haemostatic absorbable gelatin sponge (Gelfoam , Pfizer, Kalamazoo, MI, USA).
