Sumario:We report the case of a 31-year-old male patient who presented with complaints of left upper and lower limb weakness with giddiness, imbalance while walking, hiccups, nasal regurgitation, and history of difficulty in swallowing. He was evaluated and diagnosed to have a space-occupying lesion in the left medulla oblongata-cavernous hemangioma. He underwent suboccipital craniotomy and excision of the lesion. Postoperatively, he regained strength and balance. He is asymptomatic during follow-up.
