  • Title: Traumatic bleeding of spinal angiolipoma presenting with subacute paraparesis--a case report and histopathological aspects.
    Author: Sankaran V, Carey M, Shad A.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2010 Dec; 24(6):714-5. PubMed ID: 20874452.
    Abstract:
    Spinal angiolipoma is a rare benign tumour. It usually presents as a slowly progressive compressive lesion. Bleeding in this tumour is extremely rare and is spontaneous and acute. This is the first reported case of post-traumatic bleeding from a spinal angiolipoma, who developed subacute progressive paraparesis. The pathological definition of this rare entity is not well established. Histologically it is distinct from cutaneous angiolipoma.
