Sporadic Lateral Ventricular Hemangioblastoma presenting with Intraventricular and Subarachnoid Haemorrhage.
[von hippel-lindau disease]
Intraventricular
hemangioblastoma
(
HB
)
is
very
rare
;
few
cases
of
intraventricular
HB
have
been
reported
in
the
literature
,
either
sporadically
or
in
association
with
von
Hippel-
Lindau
disease
.
Furthermore
,
the
incidence
of
ventricular
haemorrhage
from
HB
seems
to
be
uncommon
.
We
report
a
unique
case
of
sporadic
HB
of
the
right
lateral
ventricle
presenting
with
intratumoural
and
intraventricular
haemorrhage
in
addition
to
multifocal
intracranial
superficial
siderosis
,
indicating
the
presence
of
a
subarachnoid
haemorrhage
(
SAH
)
as
well
.
Such
a
combination
has
not
been
reported
before
.
In
the
future
,
the
detection
of
an
intraventricular
mass
in
association
with
ventricular
haemorrhage
,
with
or
without
SAH
,
should
include
HB
as
a
differential
diagnosis
,
particularly
when
the
imaging
appearances
are
not
typical
of
the
more
common
intraventricular
tumours
.
