摘要
Cerebral hemangioblastomas are vascular tumors and rarely occur in supratentorial locations. Here we present a case of a 52-year-old woman with a supratentorial hemangioblastoma mimicking a meningioma. Brain computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intensely contrast-enhanced dural-based solid mass in the left frontal region.
We demonstrate that vascular supratentorial hemangioblastomas can be resected with limited blood loss through preoperative middle meningeal artery embolization.
