Abstract

A patient with cavernous sinus cavernoma who was difficult to diagnose by imaging modalities

Cavernous Sinus Cavernous Hemangioma (CSCH) is a relatively rare vascular lesion, accounting for 0.4-2.0% of tumors of the cavernous sinus. Due to multiple differential diagnoses, a diagnosis based on pre-operative imaging is very important. This case report describes a patient with CSCH in whom it was difficult to determine a pre-operative diagnosis based on imaging modalities.
