    Summary

    Spinal extradural haemangiolipomas are rare tumors typically found in middle-aged individuals. Early diagnosis through myelography and CT scanning is crucial for effective surgical removal and patient recovery.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Spinal extradural haemangiolipomas are uncommon tumors.
    • This study describes three new cases and reviews sixteen previous ones.

    Observation:

    • Two cases were in the thoracic region, one in the lumbar.
    • Patients were middle-aged, and tumors were located at the mid-thoracic level.
    • Tumors presented as extradural space-occupying lesions, with some cases showing fluctuating symptoms.

    Findings:

    • Histological diagnosis confirmed haemangiolipomas.
    • Subtotal removal was performed in all presented cases, leading to good recovery.
    • Spinal extradural haemangiolipomas have a predilection for middle-aged individuals and the mid-thoracic spine.

    Implications:

    • Accurate diagnosis relies on careful myelography and CT scanning.
    • Technical aspects of imaging are vital for identifying these lesions.
    • Understanding the clinical and radiological features aids in surgical planning and patient management.
