Abstract
The preoperative diagnosis of these neoplasms is difficult because the clinical suspicion is low in supratentorial location. Imaging techniques are useful but definitive diagnosis is made through pathologic examination. The use of immunohistochemical techniques is helpful for the differential diagnosis with lesions that are more common in this region. The importance of a correct diagnosis of these histologically benign tumors, lies on the possible association with VHL syndrome and its complications.
