  • Title: Extensive vertebral haemangioma with cord compression in two patients: review of the literature.
    Author: Shah KC, Chacko AG.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2004 Jun; 18(3):250-2. PubMed ID: 15327226.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of extensive vertebral haemangioma with progressive neurological deficits are described. Successful treatment was accomplished with palliative surgical decompression after preoperative embolization in one case and with postoperative radiotherapy in the other. Preoperative embolization, palliative surgical decompression and postoperative radiotherapy appear to provide satisfactory outcome in patients with extensive haemangiomas.
