title: Psychiatric vulnerability and cerebellar haemangioblastoma. A case report.
abstract: A case of cerebellar haemangioblastoma in described in a middle-aged woman with a history of multiple psychiatric admissions for depressive and psychosomatic symptomatology. The diagnosis was not made until a late stage, largely because of the knowledge of her psychiatric history and its particular slant. Similar psychiatric symptoms were present at the outset, colouring the emerging neurological picture. The clinical manifestations and management of cerebellar haemangioblastoma are described.
