Fig. 5. — Hemangioblastoma. A 44-year-old man presented with numbness in the right upper extremity and right paralysis. A radiological examination revealed a tumor at the C5 level. (A) T2-weighted MRI showed a well-defined tumor with a syrinx and flow void. (B) The tumor was strongly shown in contrast with gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). (C) Dynamic computed tomography angiography also showed a strongly contrasted tumor with dilated feeder and drainer. Preoperative angiography and feeder occlusion were performed, and the tumor was totally resected microscopically via a posterior approach. Immediately after surgery, the patient’s symptoms improved. (D) Thirty-six months later, MRI showed no recurrence of the tumor and the syrinx had collapsed.
