In toto, resection of this hypervascular tumor is essential to avoid bleeding complications. Surgery for hemangioblastoma at the cervicothoracic junction is complex and nerve resection of the T1 results in specific neurodeficits of the hand muscles which are not well known.  Case Report: A 34-year-old woman was diagnosed with a slowly growing tumor located at the left foramen T1\/T2. Pressure from the tumor resulted in Horner\u2019s syndrome and pain and paresthesia in the upper extremity. The tumor was resected in toto through a posterior midline approach and rib resection and transection of the left T1 and T2 spinal nerves. T2 hemicorporectomy and spinal stabilization were performed to gain access to and mobilize the tumor ventrally. Ptosis decreased after surgery and no neurodeficit was observed except the expected deficit (no deficit was present preoperatively) caused by the T1 resection specifically a small decrease in strength of the abductor and flexor pollicis brevis and opponens pollicis and the lateral two lumbricals. Histological examination of the tumor demonstrated a hemangioblastoma. von Hippel-Lindau disease was ruled out by genetic testing of the patient\u2019s blood. Eight-month postoperatively, all pre-operative symptoms had decreased considerably and the radiographic examination shoved unchanged pedicle screw\/rod stabilization of the cervicothoracic junction.  Conclusion: Hemangioblastoma is a rare hypervascular tumor very rarely located at the spinal nerve. The tumor should be resected in toto to avoid recurrence and bleeding. In the current case, the location was at the T1 root necessitating complex surgery with laminectomies and hemicorporectomy of T2 and a posterior rib resection\/thoracotomy. Spinal stabilization is mandatory. Preferably embolization should be performed preoperatively. T1 transection results in a specific neurodeficit which should be explained to the patient preoperatively. The patients should undergo genetic testing for Hippel-Lindau disease.
