title: Supratentorial hemangioblastoma in childhood.
abstract: Only 2 cases of supratentorial hemangioblastoma in children are recorded. We report a third: an occipital cerebral hemangioblastoma in a 9-year-old girl. The tumor had a solid subpial portion continuous with a cystic intraparenchymal portion. It had no dural insertion, although it was in contact with the falx. A year after complete removal there is no sign of recurrence.
