Abstract:
The clinical data and genetic test results of a 7-year-old female child with cerebral cavernoma were retrospectively analyzed. The child was admitted to the hospital due to a one-month headache. Brain MRI showed cerebral cavernoma. The genetic testing showed a pathogenic heterozygous mutation c.456T>G (p.Tyr152Ter, 61) in the programmed cell death 10 (PDCD10) gene, while both parents had the wild-type at the locus. The child had no symptoms of epileptic seizures, cerebral hemorrhage, or neurological dysfunction, and received conservative treatment, with regular outpatient follow-up MRI scans.
