Abstract

Objective: to optimize the surgical treatment strategy as well as to estimate the results of surgical treatment at patients with spinal hemangioblastomas. Material and methods: we operated 20 patients with solitary or multiple (von Hippel-Lindau syndrome) spinal hemangioblastomas - 12 men and 8 women from 2000 year till 2010 year. Multiple tumors because of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome were at 4 patients, idiopathic tumors - at 16 patients. Results: The temporary rising of neurological deficit after tumor removal was seen at 12 among 20 patients. There were no patients with small tumors (max size not more than 5 mm) who showed clinically significant deterioration of neurological status in postoperative period. The partial regress of neurological symptoms compared to preoperative status was seen at 6 patients, absence of neurological status dynamics - at 4 patients and deterioration of neurological signs - at 2 persons among all patients with larger tumors in postoperative periods. All patients remained within their functional class in spite of various dynamics of neurological status in postoperative period. Conclusion: the surgery is definitive mandatory for treatment of patients with solitary small hemangioblastomas located dorsally. The symptomatic spinal hemangioblastomas because of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome as well as solitary tumors are subjects to surgical removal. The open surgical treatment or radiosurgery may be proposed for solitary asymptomatic spinal hemangioblastoma. Multiple asymptomatic spinal hemangioblastomas are the indications for radiosurgery treatment.
