In summarizing this case report, the following statement was made: “While, up to the present time, there is no definite evidence of an associated Lindau’s syndrome in this patient, cases of this type should be followed by both x-ray and physical examination for evidence of pathology in the central nervous system or somatic organs.” On April 26, 1941, this patient was admitted to the Neuro-Surgical Service of the Brooklyn Hospital complaining of nausea and vomiting, increasingly severe headaches, and inability to get about because of unsteadiness of gait. A diagnosis of cerebellar tumor was made and on April 28, 1941, a posterior foasa craniotomy was performed. In the left cerebellar lobe there was encountered a cyst containing rapproximately 30 to 40 C.C. of xanthochromic fluid. The cyst was evacuated, but no attempt was made to remove the cyst wall. The postoperative diagnosis was left cerebellar cyst, the postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged from the hospital on May 27, 1941. The discharge diagnosis: Angiomatosis retinae (von Hippel’s disease) cerebellar cyst, left side (Lindau’s disease). MEBVYN 85 PIERREPONT BROOKLYN, N.
