Disorder information
Disorder name:
Cerebral Cavernous Malformation 
Disoder ID:
Synonyms:
familial cavernous angioma, cavernous angiomatous malformations, cerebral capillary malformations 
Definition:
Cerebral cavernous malformations are collections of small blood vessels (capillaries) in the brain that are enlarged and irregular in structure. These capillaries have abnormally thin walls, and they lack other support tissues, such as elastic fibers, which normally make them stretchy. As a result, the blood vessels are prone to leakage, which can cause the health problems related to this condition. Cavernous malformations can occur anywhere in the body, but usually produce serious signs and symptoms only when they occur in the brain and spinal cord (which are described as cerebral).
