title: Sellar-sphenoid sinus hemangioblastoma: case report.
abstract: A very unusual case of sellar-sphenoid sinus hemangioblastoma without stigmata of von Hippel-Lindau disease is presented. Subtotal excision of tumor was done via an extended frontobasal approach. Diagnostic controversies between hemangioblastoma and angioblastic meningioma are discussed and the relevant literature reviewed.
