SPONTANEOUS INTRAMEDULLARY HEMORRHAGE OF SPINAL HEMANGIOBLASTOMA

Abstract

The risk of spontaneous hemorrhage from a spinal hemangioblastoma is low. Spinal hemangioblastomas presenting with intramedullary hemorrhage tend to cause severe neurological deficits and have a poorer long-term prognosis compared with subarachnoid hemorrhage and nonhemorrhagic lesions.
