title: Spinal extradural angiosarcoma occurring after treatment for Hodgkin's disease.
abstract: An extradural angiosarcoma was found invading the L3 and L4 nerve roots. An angiosarcoma has not previously been reported in this situation. The tumour was diagnosed eighteen years after the patient presented with Hodgkin's disease and was possibly induced by the treatment given for this disease.
