Symptomatic cerebral vasospasm following posterior fossa hemangioblastoma resection: illustrative case.

Background: Symptomatic cerebral vasospasm following posterior fossa intra-axial tumor resection is a rare phenomenon with only seven cases previously reported in the literature. The condition appears distinct to vasospasm following supratentorial tumor resection and extra-axial tumor resection of the posterior fossa. It shares, however, similarities with vasospasm following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
