Spinal extradural angiolipoma: a case report
Abstract
- Spinal extradural angiolipoma is a rare benign tumor containing vascular and mature adipose elements. The most common location of this tumor is the thoracic level with a tendency to involve several spinal segments. Almost all spinal extradural angiolipomas develop on the posterior aspect of the dura. The authors report a case of surgically proven spinal extradural angiolipoma involving the thoracic level and describe its CT findings.
