Abstract
A case of suprasellar granular-cell tumour (GCT), presenting with intraventricular haemorrhage is described. The authors emphasize the exceptional character of spontaneous haemorrhage for a GCT, although haemorrhagic state during surgery has often been reported and may hinder total removal. Preoperative arteriography discloses a suprasellar blush in half of the cases. This facilitates the preoperative diagnosis. By taking special preoperative and operative precautions against haemorrhage complete removal can be carried out provided there is no encasement of the optic chiasm.
