pet ct and mr features of infiltrating spinal Angiolipoma
Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2019Co-Authors: Guohua Shen, Anren KuangAbstract:Spinal Angiolipomas are benign tumors predominantly found in the epidural space. Infiltrating spinal Angiolipoma is an extremely rare type, which tends to invade the surrounding tissue and may mimic an aggressive tumor. Herein, we reported the case of a 64-year-old woman with a thoracic Angiolipoma involving the T9 vertebral body and its appendix. The lesion showed long T1 and T2 signal intensity on MRI and slightly increased FDG uptake on PET/CT. After surgery, the pathologic examination demonstrated features consistent with Angiolipoma, and the patient was free of symptoms.

Radiological and histological findings in spinal intramedullary Angiolipoma
Neuroradiology, 1999Co-Authors: Joachim Klisch, Joachim Spreer, H. G. Bloss, A. Baborie, U. HubbeAbstract:We report an intramedullary Angiolipoma with spinal cord compression studied by MRI, angiography and CT. Angiolipomas of the spine are rare benign tumours containing vascular and mature adipose elements. They are epidural in more than 90 % of the cases; only three cases of intramedullary Angiolipoma are described. The clinical picture is nonspecific, but MRI and CT suggest the diagnosis.

A case report and review of thoracic spinal Angiolipoma.
Surgical neurology international, 2017Co-Authors: Yusif Mohammed, Shahed Elhamdani, Mobeen Farooq, Rida S MazagriAbstract:BACKGROUND While it is a rare entity, spinal Angiolipomas are well-defined benign tumors that have been described sporadically in the literature starting from the late 1800s. Composed of mature lipomatous and angiomatous elements, these tumors manifest neurological symptoms due to progressive spinal cord or root compression. We present a case of a thoracic spinal Angiolipoma and review the relevant literature. CASE DESCRIPTION A 68-year-old male with ongoing bilateral lower extremity weakness was found on enhanced magnetic resonance imaging to have an extradural mass in the thoracic spine causing cord compression. A T4-T8 laminectomy and complete excision of the epidural mass resulted in reversal of the patient's neurological symptoms. Histopathology identified the mass as a thoracic spinal Angiolipoma. CONCLUSION Given its uncommon occurrence and excellent prognosis, our report serves as a reminder to always consider spinal Angiolipoma in the differential diagnosis of epidural masses.
