A 26-year-old man having a large left frontal lobe cystic mass due to a 1.5 cm capillary hemangioblastoma acting as a mural nodule is presented. The cerebral topographical location of hemangioblastoma is rare and the reported cases are summarized and analyzed. The distinction between hemangioblastoma and angioblastic meningioma is emphasized by the occurrence of a cystic capillary hemangioblastoma in the cerebrum.

To describe the efficacy of belzutifan as a treatment for juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastomas in patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease. A case and its findings were analyzed, and a systematic literature review was conducted using PubMed and Ovid MEDLINE. At a routine follow-up, a 63-year-old woman with a history of von Hippel-Lindau disease and slowly progressive bilateral juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastomas presented with decreased visual acuity (VA) in the right eye resulting from significant lesion growth and an increase in central macular edema and exudate.

Intracranial cystic lesions such as hemangioblastoma (HB) are commonly found incidentally; however, they can be difficult to diagnose because they require various differential diagnoses. A contrast-enhanced mural nodule on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typical and can be diagnosed preoperatively; however, some small nodules cannot be visualised and only cysts may be seen, complicating preoperative diagnosis. In such cases, thorough observation of the cysts is necessary for a definitive diagnosis.

Purpose: To demonstrate the response of a juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastoma (JRH) to belzutifan in a patient with Von-Hippel-Lindau syndrome (VHL).
Methods: This case report includes fundus photography and optical coherence tomography to compare a juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastoma (JRH) before and 24 months after treatment with belzutifan.
Results: An 18-year-old woman with VHL was diagnosed with a juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastoma (JRH) at age 13.

Von Hippel-Lindau (vHL) is a hereditary disease characterized by the development of benign and malignant tumors across multiple organ systems. It is seen in approximately 1 in 36,000 live births. Given that vHL is a rare disease, studies that seek to characterize vHL are often hampered by small sample sizes.

Hemangioblastoma (HAB) is a benign, richly vascularized tumor that accounts for 2-6% of all spinal cord neoplasms and ranks third in the structure of intramedullary space-occupying lesions of the spinal cord. Hemangioblastoma may occur sporadically or, in approximately 30% of cases, as part of the clinical picture of a hereditary disease, von Hippel-Lindau disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic irradiation of hemangioblastomas of the spinal localization in patients with sporadic and von Hippel-Lindau-associated hemangioblastomas The results of stereotactic radiotherapy were evaluation of 210 spinal hemangioblastomas in 74 patients.
