چکیده
Hypothermia and cardiopulmonary bypass has rarely been used for difficult lesions of the brain such as giant aneurysms and hemangioblastoma of the brainstem. We report a case of huge recurrent angioblastic meningioma operated under the profound hypothermia and cardiopulmonary bypass. We reviewed the complications related to hypothermia and cardiopulmonary bypass for brain lesions.

Intracranial hemangiopericytomas (HPC) are rare vascular tumors. They account for 0.4% of primary central nervous system tumors. HPC is more commonly located supratentorially and tends to occur in a younger age group, with average age at presentation of 38–42 years. The tumor was found throughout the entire CNS, usually superficially and closely related to the meninges. Moreover, they have a st...
