Abstract
Freiburg Neuropathology Case Conference
Highlights
The patient was extubated on the first postoperative day without any new focal neurological deficit; mobilisation was difficult and the patient was only discharged from the intensive care unit on the seventh postoperative day
The nodular parts of the mass showed signs of high perfusion and hypervascularisation in the MRI-perfusion relative cerebral blood volume map compared to normal brain tissue (Fig. 3a)
Even though large case series reported an age peak for hemangioblastomas between 30 and 65 years old, the prevalence for hemangioblastomas in patients > 65 years old has been reported with up to 13.6% [2]. Hemangioblastomas occur in both sporadic and multiple forms, whereas the multiple form is associated with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease [3]
