Background: CP angle Hemangiopericytoma are rare tumors. Pre-operative suspicion and gross total excision are key for better management due to their aggressive nature. Case presentation: 18-year-old male presented with signs of progressive brainstem compression. Contrast MRI showed a polycystic enhancing SOL in the right CP angle region compressing the brain stem and cerebellar lobe. Operated with histopathology and IHC indicating it to be a Hemangiopericytoma. Conclusions: Hemangiopericytoma being an aggressive tumour with a high rate of recurrence compared to other common tumours at CP angle, complete resection with definitive pathological diagnosis and radiotherapy are needed for a better outcome.
