Cushing shared the authorship of this monograph with Percival Bailey (see No. 2331). It contains the first extensive classification and description of angiomatous malformations and hemangioblastomas. The detailed and profusely illustrated case reports are, like all of Cushing's case reports, a course of instruction in themselves.
