摘要
Spinal hemangiopericytomas are rare tumors. To date, only 80 cases of spinal hemangiopericytomas have been reported in the literature. The postoperative evolution of this condition in rare cases can be complicated by a symptomatic compressive epidural hematoma that can be the source of serious neurological complications requiring emergency surgery. We report a rare case of intradural and extramedullary spinal hemangiopericytomas with favorable evolution after treatment in an 82 years old woman.
