Supratentorial hemangioblastomas are rare and a meningeal location is even rarer. We report a solid meningeal hemangiblastoma in left parietal region, mimicking a meningioma on CT scan. There was no manifestation of von Hippel-Lindau disease. The literature on supratentorial meningeal hemangioblastoma was reviewed.
