Sporadic Pituitary Stalk Hemangioblastoma: A Rare Case Report and Review of the Literature

Abstract

Supratentorial hemangioblastomas have rarely been described in the literature. Pituitary stalk hemangioblastomas are extremely rare and almost always are associated with von Hippel Lindau disease. Herein, we report a sporadic case of pituitary stalk hemangioblastoma in a 36year-old male and review the current literature regarding this pathology. In our case, complete resection of the lesion was achieved using the transglabellar approach.
