Abstract:
A rare case of a cavernous hemangioma located within the fourth ventricle was reported in a patient with recurrent symptomatic episodes of bleeding. With the advent of modern microsurgical technology and high-resolution imaging modalities, especially MRI, it has become possible to make a correct preoperative diagnosis and the well delineated lesion can be resected totally with good results.
