Abstract

Vertebral body hemangiomas are benign lesions and account for 4% of all spinal tumors. The most common histological type is cavernous hemangioma. These tumors generally locate in the vertebral body as a solitary lesion. Multiple lesions are seen in approximately 25-30% of vertebral hemangiomas. Mostly they are asymptomatic and incidentally found with radiological studies. Symptomatic vertebral hemangiomas are rare and represent <1% of all hemangiomas; however, if untreated, they may cause local or radicular pain and neurological deficits ranging from myeloradiculopathy to paralysis. In this case we aim to present preoperative and postoperative Computed Tomography findings of a cavernous hemangioma that caused sudden motor deficit and was localised to the thoracic vertebra corpus and posterior elements.

Özet

Vertebral hemanjiyomlar benign lezyonlar olup tüm spinal tümörlerin %4’ üne neden olur. En yaygın histolojik tip kavernöz hemanjiyomdur. Bu tümörler, genellikle vertebra cisminde yerleşen soliter lezyon şeklindedirler. Yaklaşık %25-30 olguda ise lezyonlar birden fazla sayıda görülür. Çoğu asemptomatik olup görüntüleme yöntemleri ile rastlantısal olarak bulunur. Semptomatik vertebral hemanjiyomlar nadir olup tüm hemanjiyomların %1 inden azını temsil ederler ancak tedavi edilmezse lokal yada radiküler ağrıya ve miyeloradikülopatiden paralize kadar uzanan çok çeşitli nörolojik defisitlere neden olabilirler. Biz bu olguda torakal düzeyde vertebra korpusu ile posterior elemanları tutan, hızlı motor defisite yol açan hemanjiyomun cerrahi öncesi ve sonrası BT bulgularını tartışmayı amaçladık.
