Spinal cord hemangioblastomas occur as sporadic lesions or in the setting of Von Hippel-Lindau disease. In this intraoperative video we present a case of sporadic cervical cord hemangioblastoma and illustrate the main surgical steps to achieve safe and complete resection which include: identification and division of the feeding arteries; careful circumferential dissection of the tumor from the surrounding gliotic cord; identification, isolation and division of the main venous drainage and single piece removal of the tumor.The video can be found here: http://youtu.be/I7DxqRrfTxc.

Abstract HEMANGIOBLASTOMAS ARE NOT uncommon intramedullary spinal cord neoplasms. They are highly vascular, benign tumors that occur either sporadically or in the presence of von Hippel-Lindau disease. Despite their exceptionally vascular nature, these lesions can consistently be resected completely and safely with minimal blood loss. We describe a microsurgical method for removal of these tumors from the spinal cord.

Hemangioblastomas are benign central nervous system tumors that are found primarily (99%) in the cerebellum, brainstem, and spinal cord. They can occur sporadically (67% of cases) or in the context of the familial neoplasia syndrome, von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL; 33%). These lesions often remain quiescent or grow in a saltatory pattern. When these tumors cause signs or symptoms, the signs or symptoms are often associated with peritumoral cyst formation. Whether the tumor occurs sporadically or in the context of VHL, complete resection is the treatment of choice when necessary. This chapter describes the clinical, imaging, and treatment features of this neoplasm.

Hemangioblastomas of central nervous system are rare and indolent. Twenty-five percent of cases are in association with von Hippel–Lindau disease. Surgery is the standard therapy but un-resectable or recurrent cases need radiation or systemic therapy. Defective von Hippel–Lindau tumor suppressor gene leads to vascular endothelial growth factor overexpression and enhance angiogenesis. Here we report a 19-year-old male, diagnosed at pediatric age, who had retinal and spinal cord hemangioblastomas. He was treated 34 months with bevacizumab, afterwards 12 months with thalidomide and tertiary therapy with pazopanib for 9 months which still goes on. In case of need, radiation and surgical procedures were performed. Vascular endothelial growth factor inhibition continuity is a good therapeutic option, which improves outcomes of von Hippel–Lindau-related hemangioblastomas.
