Abstract

Hemangioblastomas are not uncommon intramedullary spinal cord neoplasms. They are highly vascular, benign tumors that occur either sporadically or in the presence of von Hippel-Lindau disease. Despite their exceptionally vascular nature, these lesions can consistently be resected completely and safely with minimal blood loss. We describe a microsurgical method for removal of these tumors from the spinal cord.
