title: [Isolated cervical spinal cord hemangioblastoma--case report].
abstract: Hemangioblastomas are rare tumors which account for 0.9-2.1% of central nervous system neoplasms. The most common site of hemangioblastomas is the cerebellum, while they are rarely located in spinal cord, cerebrum and brain stem. Hemangioblastomas occur as a sporadic entity, and as a manifestation of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. A 33-year old patient with isolated cervical spinal cord hemangioblastoma is presented.
