-
A rare evolutive vascular malformation disorder characterised by closely clustered irregular dilated capillaries that can be asymptomatic or that can cause variable neurological manifestations such as seizures, non-specific headaches, progressive or transient focal neurologic deficits, and/or cerebral haemorrhages. To date, mutations in three genes have been demonstrated; KRIT1, CCM2 and PDCD10, located on chromosome 7q21.2, 7p13, and 3q26.1 respectively, which encode proteins that, among their various functions, modulate junction formation between vascular endothelial cells. Transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete penetrance.
