Supratentorial hemangioblastomas: three case reports and review of the literature

Hemangioblastoma (HBL) within the central nervous system is a benign vascular neoplasm that usually occurs in the cerebellum. Supratentorial occurrence of HBL is an extremely rare event. Till date, approximately 129 cases of supratentorial HBL have been reported in the literature. Here, we present three new cases of supratentorial hemangioblatomas, one of which was found to have the lesions in a unique location of the choroidal fissure. The clinical, histopathological, and neuroradiological characteristics, as well as management of this rare disease are discussed with a review of the pertinent literature.
