Abstract
A case of an intracranial cavernous angioma, which presented with head aches and seizures in a pregnant patient, is described. Diagnosis was established with magnetic resonance imaging. A computer-assisted liter ature search uncovered no previously reported case of intracranial cav ernous angioma initially presenting during pregnancy.
