  • Title: Extradural spinal hemangioblastomas: report of two cases.
    Author: Tronnier V, Hartmann M, Hamer J, Kremer P, Sommer C, Jansen O, Kunze S.
    Journal: Zentralbl Neurochir; 1999; 60(2):86-92. PubMed ID: 10399267.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of predominantly extraspinally extra- and intradural spinal cord hemangioblastomas in two patients each with and without von Hippel-Lindau-disease are reported. Preoperative MRI and angiographic findings are presented and the differential diagnosis is discussed. The surgical procedure is described and the literature of hemangioblastomas in this rare localization is reviewed. Improvements in both radiologic diagnosis and microsurgical techniques, and consequent screening programs will enhance life expectancy in patients afflicted with von Hippel-Lindau disease.
