Help Understanding MRI Brain

[tae1]

Need help understanding my 4 y/o daughters MRI... impression stated, dva adjacent to cavernous malformation, also medusa like structure probable dva in right parietal lobe... what does this mean is treatment needed, she does not fall asleep on her own no matter how long she has been up, she requires clonidine to sleep, is this related?
