Abstract:
Collision lesions are rare neoplasms often described in the hepatobiliary system, genitourinary system and adrenal glands. Vertebral haemangiomas (VH) are the most common lesions involving the vertebral bodies. VHs are usually asymptomatic and considered as "Do not touch" lesions. Rarely they can be symptomatic. Imaging findings of typical and atypical haemangiomas, variant forms of haemangioma such as aggressive haemangiomas are well known. Collision lesions involving VHs are extremely rare. This article presents a series of cases with collision lesions of the vertebral body involving VHs.
Advances In Knowledge:
This Case series demonstrates the various collision lesions in spinal haemangioma.
