- Abstract
Background: Intramedullary spinal hemangioblastomas are known to be accompanied by syringomyelia. Case Description: Here, we report a patient who presented with symptoms of a Chiari malformation but was found to have a D4 intramedullary hemangioblastoma with a holocord syrinx. Conclusions: Although rare, neurosurgeons should keep in mind the possibility of an intramedullary hemangioblastoma in patients presenting with symptoms of a Chiari malformation.
