A rare solid supratentorial haemangioblastoma was found in a 67-year-old female. This uncommon brain tumor caused neurological symptoms, prompting a review of diagnostic challenges.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Supratentorial haemangioblastomas are rare central nervous system tumors.
  • Solid variants present unique diagnostic challenges compared to cystic forms.

Observation:

  • A 67-year-old female presented with psychomotor slowing, dysphasia, and mild hemiparesis.
  • Radiological findings were non-specific, complicating initial diagnosis.

Findings:

  • The case highlights the diagnostic difficulty in distinguishing supratentorial haemangioblastoma from other tumors like angioblastic meningioma.
  • Histopathological confirmation is crucial for accurate diagnosis of this rare entity.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering rare diagnoses in the differential for supratentorial masses.
