RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Extradural hemangiomas are rare, have varied and challenging clinical presentations, and require special considerations from the management point of view. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 70-year-old female presented with back pain that was ultimately attributed to a thoracolumbar extra-dural "dumbbell" hemangioma. Following surgical resection, the patient did well. CONCLUSION: Extradural hemangiomas may present as spinal extradural soft tissue masses that must be differentiated from dumbbell neurofibroma.
