Summary
This case study presents a successful surgical resection of a suprasellar hemangioblastoma in a patient with Von Hippel-Lindau disease. The orbitozygomatic approach allowed for complete tumor removal while preserving vision.
Area of Science:
- Neurosurgery
- Oncology
- Genetics
Background:
- Hemangioblastomas are benign, highly vascular tumors often linked to Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease.
- These tumors typically occur in the posterior fossa but can also be found supratentorially or in the spinal cord.
- Surgical resection is the standard treatment for symptomatic hemangioblastomas.
