Abstract

Blue rubber-bleb nevus syndrome is a rare condition that consists of multiple venous malformations involving several organ systems, mainly the skin and gastrointestinal tract. Involvement of the central nervous system is particularly rare. We describe a patient with a huge intracerebral telengiectasia revealed by a progressive neurological deficit.
