Intraneural hemangioma of spinal nerve roots: a Case Report and literature review.

Intraneural hemangiomas are rare benign neoplasms. We report the case of a 53‑year‑old female with a hemangioma in a spinal nerve root. The patient presented with muscular atropy of the right arm wihout obvious predisposing factors one year ago. MRI demonstrated a heterogeneously enhanced lesion adjacent to the right C4/5 intervertebral foramen. The lesion was considered to be a schwannoma preoperatively. Histologically, the lesion was abundant with intervening malformed vascular mass lined by simple squamous epithelial cells, and CD31 was positively stained at these epithelial cells by immunohistochemistry. The patient underwent microsurgical resection and recovered without complications.
