Abstract: A patient with a venous angioma of the temporal lobe, which was discovered as a result of intracranial hemorrhage, underwent a two-stage surgical procedure. First, the hematoma was removed and the medullary veins that converge at the draining vein were partially coagulated. Next, the majority of the remaining medullary veins were coagulated. A postoperative angiogram showed a reduction in the size of the venous angioma and good opacification of the venous system surrounding the angioma. Various other operative procedures for venous angioma are also discussed.
