Supratentorial hemangioblastoma is encountered very rarely. About 80 cases in all have been reported. The authors present a case of supratentorial hemangioblastoma in the thalamus with gradually enlarging cysts. The patient was a 45-year-old man with complaints of left hemiparesis and headache. Computed tomographic scans of the brain showed a cystic mass with mural nodule in the right thalamus. Left vertebral angiography demonstrated a vascular tumor fed by a thalamogeniculate artery. A right temporo-parietal craniotomy was performed and the tumor was totally resected through the transcortical approach. The histological diagnosis was hemangioblastoma. Post-operative course was good except for a minor complication of the left lower quadrant homonymous hemianopsia and left hemiparesis which had disappeared at the time of discharge.
