Four years ago I had a 1 c.m. cavernous angioma with an underlying cyst removed from my brainstem.I was left with severe tinglying and burning on left arm and hand, equillibrium problems, right side facial palsy,fine motor skill problems on left side and high blood pressure. Just recently I read four of my last MRI reeports, including the one that was taken a month after my surgery. In the report, it states that there is also a single 1 m.m. probable angioma in the body of the left lateral ventricle posteriorly.
The question I have is: Is this something I should be concerned about in the chance this small one will bleed and cause serious complications? I was told to not worry about it, but after one brain surgery and its complications, how can I not? Any information on this small angioma in its particular location is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
