ABSTRACT

The spinal epidural cavernous hemangiomas are a rare entity, the majority of these lesions are affecting the vertebral bodies and occasional to epidural space and the pure (spinal) epidural hemangioma is uncommon. They localized most frequent at thoracic level and symptoms such as nervous root and/or cord compression. We presented a case of pure spinal epidural cavernous hemangioma at lumbar level, wich manifested with chronic radiculopathy and had improvement after surgical total resection.
