Epidural Spinal Cavernous Hemangioma

Abstract

Epidural spinal cavernous hemangioma has a different magnetic resonance imaging appearance probably because of the presence or absence of the degenerative phenomena and hemosiderin pigments. As in cerebral locations, mixed signal intensity in all sequences on magnetic resonance images might be indicative of cavernous hemangioma. Presumptive preoperative diagnosis of the lesion may render the surgical approach less invasive.
