Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Although vertebral hemangiomas are found in 10% of the population, they rarely become symptomatic. We describe management of an enlarging cervical vertebral hemangioma during pregnancy. CASE:A primiparous woman at 33 weeks of gestation presented with neck pain and paresthesias. She had a known cervical hemangioma. Imaging revealed a C6-C7 hemangioma with extradural extension. Her symptoms fluctuated, and she was delivered by cesarean at 36 weeks of gestation. Improvement occurred after delivery, and radiographic regression of the hemangioma was demonstrated. CONCLUSION:Hormonal and vascular changes of pregnancy may exacerbate spinal hemangiomas. Depending on the location, these may lead to profound neurologic disability and management depends on the degree of myelopathy. Surgical intervention may be necessary to avoid neurologic injury, but amelioration after delivery is possible.
