A 45-year-old gentleman presented with headache, dizziness, and unsteadiness of gait. On imaging, he was found to have a cerebellar and a spinal intramedullary hemangioblastoma. To rule out Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease, we did screening of the whole abdomen with ultrasonography followed by
BACKGROUND
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is an uncommon, but not rare manifestation of dorsal medullary lesions which has less commonly been described as arising de novo or significantly worsening following surgical resection of the lesion.
METHODS
We present a case and review the English literature
A case of a 40-year-old male with past medical history of smoking, hypertension, polycythemia vera, intellectual disability and schizophrenia who presented with generalized headaches, progressive loss of balance and visual disturbance for one month.Head CT BACKGROUND
This report describes a patient with Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome and uncontrolled hypertension due to pheochromocytoma who underwent craniotomy for the excision of a cerebellar hemangioblastoma combined with a laparoscopic adrenalectomy.
METHODS
A 31-year-old man presented with
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study is to describe the results of 16 patients with posterior fossa hemangioblastoma, treated with microsurgical techniques.
METHODS
Between June 2005 and December 2015, 16 patients with posterior fossa hemangioblastoma were operated on, underwent microsurgical resection.
Tumors of the posterior fossa presenting orthostatic hypotension are rare and only nine cases have been reported so far. The locations of almost all these tumors were near the fourth ventricle and three of them were hemangioblastoma. A case of a tumor of the fourth ventricle showing autonomic
OBJECTIVE
To explore the clinical characteristics, diagnostic strategies and surgical techniques of hemangioblastoma (HB) in medulla oblongata.
METHODS
The clinical and radiological characteristics, therapeutic processes and outcomes of 12 HB cases treated at our department from 2002 to 2012 were
A rare case of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease with bilateral pheochromocytomas, right renal cell carcinoma, right pelvic carcinoma, spinal hemangioblastoma and primary hyperparathyroidism is described. A 78-year-old woman had a history of hypertension from her forties. She suffered from headache
It has already been noted that hemangioblastoma is occasionally complicated with various diseases, especially retinal angioma, cysts of kidney and/or pancreas, vascular disorders, and furthermore about 10% of hemangioblastoma are multiple. The authors report here a case of multiple cerebellar
Background: Symptomatic cerebellar hemangioblastomas are extremely rare in pregnant women and the ideal management is not well established. In the present article, we aimed to report a case of large cerebellar hemangioblastoma complicated by pregnancy and managed
In a survey of 46 patients with haemagioblastoma of the CNS (Neurology Dept. University Hamburg, 1950-1980) most (n = 40) were found to have angioblastomas of the cerebellum (Lindau tumors). Of these patients 21 were re-examined in 1983. Headache was the most frequent initial symptom (43%), and
OBJECTIVE
We present herein the intraoperative indocyanin green videoangiography (ICGVAG) findings for three cases of cerebellar hemangioblastoma (HB).
METHODS
Cerebellar HB was detected in three patients presenting with symptoms of vertigo and/or headaches and diagnosed on the basis of preoperative
OBJECTIVE
Although reported to occur throughout the central nervous system, hemangioblastomas are principally found in the cerebellum and spinal cord. Pineal region tumors comprise approximately 1% of central nervous system neoplasms. A wide variety of tumors can affect this region, the most common
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of surgical treatment of hemangioblastomas in the medulla oblongata.
METHODS
Between January 2006 and December 2007, 18 patients who underwent surgery for hemangioblastomas in the medulla oblongata in the Neurosurgical Department of
Suprasellar hemangioblastoma (HBL) without von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is extremely rare. A 51-year-old woman presented with headache and progressively deteriorating bilateral visual disturbance for 4 months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 2.5-cm solid mass in the suprasellar region
