Haemangioma of T10 verterbra

Posted by cikinator @cikinator, Jul 15 6:23am

Is there anyone out there that has had an aggressive form of Haemangioma of the vertebra? With decompression surgery and radiation?
My husband has it - he is not paralysed but cannot walk on his own.
Just want to know if there is a light at the end of the tunnel, as this is a very very rare condition

cikinator, have you looked at vertebroplasty. I've only read of high success rates 90%. The procedure is fairly easy, usually done by interventional radiologists.
