What's The Definition Of The Medical Condition Central Nervous System Cavernous Hemangioma?
A vascular malformation composed of clusters of large, thin walled veins lacking intervening nervous tissue. They are most common in the BRAIN STEM but may also occur in the cerebral hemispheres, diencephalon, cerebellum, and spinal cord.
