مستخلص: Vertebral hemangiomas are the most common benign tumor of the spine. Although usually asymptomatic, there is a higher risk of severe neurological deficits when hemangiomas afflict the thoracic spine. The management of vertebral hemangioma patients with extraosseous extension causing neurological dysfunction has not yet been established. We described the effectiveness of surgical and radiation therapy in a case of recurrent hemangioma in the thoracic spine with extraosseous extension causing progressive paraparesis. We retrospectively reviewed a case of vertebral recurrent hemangioma treated by posterior spinal decompression and fusion and subsequent radiation therapy.
