AB SUMMARY: Hemangioblastomas of the central nervous system are the most common tumors seen in patients with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease. A very rare case of diffuse leptomeningeal hemangioblastomatosis obliterating large areas of the subarachnoid space, both intracranial and within the spinal canal, which developed during a relatively short period, in a patient with VHL disease is presented.
