  • Title: Typical magnetic resonance features of a haemangioblastoma, an uncommon nerve root lesion: case report and literature review.
    Author: Sawyer B, Heng R, Ferris N.
    Journal: Australas Radiol; 2007 Oct; 51 Spec No.():B28-30. PubMed ID: 17875149.
    Abstract:
    Haemangioblastomas are uncommon tumours of the central nervous system. Nerve root haemangioblastomas with both intradural and extradural components are extremely rare. We present a case of a C2 nerve root haemangioblastoma in a 64-year-old man where the preoperative diagnosis was a spinal meningioma. An unexpectedly vascular tumour was found at initial procedure. Urgent catheter angiography was performed and the tumour was embolized prior to complete excision at a subsequent procedure.
