Neurological Outcome of Spinal Hemangioblastomas: An International Observational Multicenter Study About 35 Surgical Cases
A large majority of patients operated for a spinal HB demonstrated favorable outcome after surgery, with unchanged or improved neurological status. Advanced age could have an impact on the post-operative neurological outcome. Other factors such as tumor size, location, and the presence of syrinx did not seem to significantly impact the neurological outcome. Finally, the surgery of these vascular lesions with no possibility of debulking or piece-meal removal and requiring "en bloc" resection is technically demanding and should be performed by experienced teams in spine and spinal cord surgery only.
