TY - JOUR AU - Rao, Prashanth J. AU - Phan, Kevin AU - Ball, Jonathon PY - 2016 TI - Acute hemorrhagic paraplegia in a thoracic spinal hemangioblastoma after free diving JF - Journal of Spine Surgery; Vol 2, No 1 (March 01, 2016): Journal of Spine Surgery Y2 - 2016 KW - N2 - Hemangioblastomas are well described vascular tumors that cause gradual-onset neurological problems from edema, syrinx formation and rarely, acute hemorrhage. There are three cases in literature (1-3) with acute hemorrhage-related neurological presentation but none are related to diving. We present a rare case of acute hemorrhagic paraplegia in a thoracic spinal hemangioblastoma following free breath-hold diving. UR - https://jss.amegroups.org/article/view/3526
