“…extramedullary and extramedullary tumors, since these tumors are in a rare location for spinal hemangioblastoma. Therefore, we reviewed MRI findings in previous reports, as summarized in Table 2 [8,9,[13][14][15][16]. The results for intramedullary and intradural-extramedullary tumors support the characteristic features found in the present study.…”

Differentiation of localization of spinal hemangioblastomas based on imaging and pathological findings

et al. 2011

Intramedullary ? extramedullary hemangioblastomas with largely extramedullary growth are rare and often incorrectly assigned as intradural-extramedullary tumors preoperatively. Preoperative evaluation of the precise tumor location is important for total resection of tumor and improving the surgical outcome. The aim of this study was to provide the first identification of the key differences among of preoperative MR images of hemangioblastomas in different locations and to correlate these with pathological findings. The subjects were 26 patients with surgery for spinal hemangioblastoma in our department, including 6 with an intramedullary tumor who were complicated with von Hippel Lindau disease. Intramedullary, intramedullary ? extramedullary, and intradural-This paper is designed and submitted acting on guideline of IRB of Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine and all patients have signed consent forms for this study.

“…For extramedullary hemangioblastomas, they give no change in intramedullary signal, as shown in the present study and in case reports on intradural-extramedullary hemangioblastomas [8,13,14]. This finding is a characteristic for differentiation of tumors limited to the extramedullary region from intramedullary ?…”

“…Haemangioblastoma is an uncommon neoplasm in humans, usually located in the cerebellum but can occur in all parts of the central nervous system . Spinal cord localisation of a haemangioblastoma is unusual; most clinical reports of the disease in humans describe intramedullary tumours, whereas intradural extramedullary growth is extremely rare . These tumours represent approximately 2–10% of all spinal cord neoplasms in people and can occur sporadically or as a part of the Von Hippel‐Lindau syndrome …”

Intradural–extramedullary haemangioblastoma with paraspinal extension in a dog

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Haemangioblastoma is an extremely rare neoplasm in animals and only two cases of this tumour have been reported, but in other anatomical locations. Haemangioblastomas in human patients are more commonly located in the cerebellum and intradural-extramedullary growth is extremely rare. The dog in this study responded favourably to combined surgery and metronomic chemotherapy and was clinically normal 1 year after surgery.

“…The third most common one is hemangioma or hemangioblastoma, representing approximately 3% to 8% of all [ 1 ]. There is association between intradural hemangioma with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome, an autosomal-dominant chromosomal disorder caused by deletion of chromosome 3p, especially if the tumor is multiple [ 12 ]. Meningiomas or peripheral nerve sheath tumors comprise most of intradural extramedullary spinal cord tumors [ 1 , 3 ].…”

Intradural intramedullary mixed type hemangioma is a rare histotype of primary spinal cord tumors, though it can carry a severe clinical burden leading to limb dysfunction or motor and sensory disturbances. Timely intervention with radical resection is the hallmark of treatment but achieving it is not an easy task even for experienced neurosurgeons. We herein present an exemplificative case presenting with sudden paraplegia in which total resection was achieved under intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring. A thorough discussion on the operative technique and the role of neuromonitoring in allowing a safe surgical management of primary spinal cord tumors is presented.
