OPINION STATEMENT: We try to see the babies prior to the onset of symptoms so that their parents can receive anticipatory guidance regarding seizures and how to recognize and respond to them and so that proper referrals to ophthalmology...

Brain Vascular Malformation Consortium: Overview, Progress and Future Directions.

The Journal of rare disorders

Akers AL, Ball KL, Clancy M, Comi AM, Faughnan ME, Gopal-Srivastava R, Jacobs TP, Kim H, Krischer J, Marchuk DA, McCulloch CE, Morrison L, Moses M, Moy CS, Pawlikowska L, Young WL.
PMID: 25221778
J Rare Disord. 2013 Apr 01;1(1):5.

Brain vascular malformations are resource-intensive to manage effectively, are associated with serious neurological morbidity, lack specific medical therapies, and have no validated biomarkers for disease severity and progression. Investigators have tended to work in "research silos" with suboptimal cross-communication....

BACKGROUND: Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare neurovascular disorder associated with capillary malformation, seizures, cognitive impairments, and stroke-like episodes (SLEs), arising from a somatic activating mutation in GNAQ. Studies suggest this mutation may cause hyperactivation of the mammalian target of...

Computed tomography perfusion abnormalities after carotid endarterectomy help in the diagnosis of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.

Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques
