Intracranial hemangioblastoma are benign vascular tumors and can be either sporadic or associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease.

Recurrent hemangioblastomas or those in difficult to access locations pose significant challenges to treating physicians.

Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) can be used as either upfront therapy or salvage therapy for recurrent or residual hemangioblastoma.

GKRS has the advantage of treating multiple intracranial hemangioblastoma lesions in a minimally invasive manner.

GKRS can be considered as a primary therapeutic option in high-risk patients with intracranial hemangioblastoma.
