| pubmed-article:2319324 | pubmed:abstractText | A 50-year-old man with a right hemiparesis was found to have a cavernous malformation in the left thalamus. The diagnosis was made using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The vascular malformation was totally removed by means of a transcallosal interhemispheric surgical approach, but the patient's neurological deficit worsened. The role of MR imaging in establishing the diagnosis is emphasized and other published cases with thalamic locations are reviewed. | lld:pubmed |
