Abstract

Intracranial hemangiopericytomas are rare vascular tumors, accounting for less than 1% of all primary tumors of the central nervous system. This tumor is usually found outside the CNS, specifically in the lower extremities and retroperitoneum. The standard treatment for this condition involves surgery followed by radiotherapy to reduce the risk of recurrence. This case report presents a case report of a young female diagnosed with intracranial hemangiopericytoma in 2021 at Acharya Tulsi Regional Cancer Institute, Bikaner.
