Intensive, functional training leads to optimal outcomes in a young woman post brain stem hemorrhage due to cerebral cavernous malformation.

DISCUSSION: This case report demonstrates an unusual clinical course of unexpected full recovery in a young woman after a large brainstem CCM after an intensive 6-week course of physical therapy. Other patients with a similar presentation after CCM may benefit from an intensive plan of care. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of unusual recovery in this population as not to limit expectations for recovery. PMID: 29979899 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
