The cavernous hemangioma of spinal cord complicated with hematomyelia (clinical case and literature review)

Abstract

This article presents the detailed review of clinical case of female patient with cavernous hemangioma (CH) of cervical spinal cord which was presented as acute massive hematomyelia. The hemorrhage from CH leaded to development of upper paraparesis and lower paraplegia. The repeated cervical MRI was not be able to reveal CH. CH was considered as the most probable reason of hemorrhage while determine the indications for surgical treatment, but the final diagnosis was stated only intraoperatively and as a result of histological examination. This case is considered to be of interest taking into account the complexity of correct diagnostics making as well as the choice of optimal surgical strategy for treatment of spinal cord CH.
