[Familial cerebral cavernomas: discovery made during an epileptic seizure in a 10-year-old girl].

The assessment of an epileptic seizure in a 10-year-old girl originating from Reunion Island revealed a case of familial cerebral cavernous angioma. Multiple hemorrhagic lesions seen during a cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan was suggestive of cavernomas. A cerebral MRI scan in the father showed multiple asymptomatic lesions, thus confirming the familial nature.
