Acta Neurochirurgica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The clinical details of four cases of supratentorial haemangioblastomata are presented. The histological criteria have been reviewed and contrasted with those of angioblastic meningiomata and haemangiopericytomata. A review of the world literature since 1930 has shown that 29 other cases have been described with acceptable histological proof.
