Abstract:

SUMMARY

Epidural haemangiomas are very rare tumours of the spine. Only a few case reports have been published and most of them were cavernous or capillary. To the best of our knowledge, we report the first case of a histologically confirmed epidural capillary-cavernous haemangioma of the thoracic spine presented in the MRI.

Keywords: copillary-cavernous haemangioma; epidural space; magnetic resonance imaging; pregnancy; spine
