Abstract

|
A rare case of fatal intratumoral hemorrhage in a cerebellar hemangioblastoma is de-scribed. A 32-year-old soldier was presented with loss of consciousness of acute onset, followed by rapidly progressing coma. At autopsy it was shown that the brain was edematous and covered with basal subarachnoid hemorrhage, and well circumscribed cystic tumor was noted in cerebellum. The tumor involved the cerebellar vermis and the right hemisphere, protruding upward from the superior surface of the cerebellum. The cystic portion was filled with fresh blood clot. Histologic study confirmed the diagnosis of hemangioblastoma showing typical two components of large polygonal stromal cell and anastomosin,g capillary network.
