title: Dumbbell-shaped spinal epidural cavernous angioma.
abstract: A case of a spinal epidural cavernous angioma extending in the intra- and extravertebral spaces through the intervertebral foramen is presented. It was dumbbell shaped, but did not show enlargement of the intervertebral foramen, a common sign that is thought to be helpful in the diagnosis of spinal neurinoma.
