Abstract
A 30-year-old woman suffered cerebellar hemorrhage during the delivery of her first child. She had undergone surgical removal of a symptomatic cerebellar hemangioblastoma 6 years previously. Neuroradiological examinations indicated recurrent hemangioblastoma, confirmed by histological examination of the surgical specimen. She was discharged with no neurological deficit. Hemangioblastomas are benign tumors that are curable with surgical removal, but can grow during pregnancy. Women of reproductive age who have been treated for hemangioblastoma need careful long-term follow up, even if they show no signs of lesion recurrence.
