Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Cavernous malformations (cavernomas) are angiographically occult vascular lesions that can present symptomatically or be discovered incidentally. Rarely, they present in the hypothalamus or in children.
CASE DESCRIPTION: We describe the case of a 14-year-old male patient who presented with headaches and fever and was found to have a hypothalamic cavernoma that hemorrhaged. It was managed expectantly, with 1 rehemorrhage 21 months later, and the patient remains asymptomatic to this day aside from headaches.
CONCLUSIONS: This is to our knowledge the youngest case of a hypothalamic cavernoma to be reported and includes 8.5 years of follow-up and imaging. In addition, a literature review is performed that summarizes the 11 previously reported cases of hypothalamic cavernomas, including associated symptoms, management options, and outcomes.
