Histogenesis of haemangioblastomas: an immunocytochemical and ultrastructural study in a case of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome.
The cerebellar, retinal, and one of the spinal haemangioblastomas in a case of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome were studied by immunocytochemistry and electron microscopy. The tumours were positive for neurone specific enolase and variably positive for somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide, and bombesin. Electron microscopy of the cerebellar tumour showed secretory granules with an average diameter o...
متن کاملPosterior fossa haemangioblastomas in Northern Ireland: a clinico-epidemiological study

The epidemiological and clinical features and the results after operative treatment are presented and compared with other series. Posterior fossa haemangioblastomas were more common in female than in male pa...
متن کاملUse of immunohistochemical methods in the differential diagnosis between primary cerebellar haemangioblastoma and metastatic renal carcinoma.
The potential role of immunohistochemistry in making the distinction between primary cerebellar haemangioblastoma and metastatic renal carcinoma was investigated by examining the reaction pattern of 10 cerebellar haemangioblastomas (seven women, three men, aged 20-40 years) and 10 primary renal carcinomas (six men, four women, aged 49-82 years) to a panel of epithelial, glial, and neural/neuroe...
متن کاملRepurposing propranolol as a drug for the treatment of retinal haemangioblastomas in von Hippel-Lindau disease
BACKGROUND Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a rare oncological disease with an incidence of 1:36,000, and is characterized by the growth of different types of tumours. Haemangioblastomas in the central nervous system (CNS) and retina, renal carcinoma and pheochromocytomas are the most common tumours. The absence of treatment for VHL leads to the need of repeated surgeries as the only option f...
متن کاملVon Hippel-Lindau disease: delayed presentation as a cerebellar haemangioblastoma in an elderly patient.
Cerebellar haemangioblastomas are rare in the elderly. Those associated with the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease, usually present during the third decade of life. We report an unusually delayed presentation in an 80 year old obligate carrier of VHL gene mutation.
