Suggest Treatments For Blood Vessel Anomaly Under The Skull

My husband had an MRI for a pituitary tumor, but also found that he has a blood vessel anomoly under the top of his skull. The vessel is rubbing against the skull causing it to wear away. My husband has had chronic headaches for over 3 months and complains of explosive pressure & pain on left side of his head when he coughs, sneezes, strains, etc. We are really worried and cannot get anything to stop the pain, what should we do?

Hello,

Consult with a Neurosurgeon for these issues and treatment. The pituitary tumor may be removed by surgery. The abnormal vessel also may be excluded/ligated.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
