What Does "intraosseous Hamangloma" In An MRI Indicate?
Question: I have a intraosseous hamangloma , I had an MRI BEFORE AND THE DOCTOR SAID THAT I HAVE A SPINE COMPRESSION AND NOW AFTER A SECOND MRI another doctor said that I have that ,I am confused
Brief Answer:
Intraosseous haemangioma are non serious(benign)
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for posting
I have gone through your query and understand your concern. The spine compression shown in the old MRI report is because of Haemangioma which was in nascent stage at that time and probably was not diagnosed as a cause of spine (vertebrae) compression.
Haemangioma leading to compression and acute backache may be treated by -
Exercises,Ibuprofen and muscle relaxant drug thiocolchicoside, vertebroplasty (bone cement is placed in compressed vertebrae).This tumour is benign in nature.
For any further clarification you may carry the last MRI report and film to the radiologist who has done the present MRI.
Hope this suffices and I shall be glad to answer any further query.
Regards

GOOD MORNING Doctor ,
I forgot to give the history of my situation , in 2013 I fall from my chair and the chair fall underneath my back and since that time I had a back pain between my shoulders .
I had a first MRI and it show that I have a compression in T5 AND T6 and a week ago I had another MRI it show that I have a shallow posterior disc bulge in T8 AND T9 and untraosseous hemangloma in t10 and T12 ,isn't that contradictory because I never had any back problems before and read in the internet that intraossoeus is genetic how come is genetic and I have that problem since my accident .
thank you

Brief Answer:
Intraosseous lesion are mostly asymptomatic
Detailed Answer:
Hello
You are welcome
I have gone through the details carefully and would like to say that intraosseous lesions are mostly without symptoms and are incidental finding on MRI,which was done for something else. If they become symptomatic it's only in elderly age group that is 50-60 year.
So,it's quite possible they may not be visible in the old MRI as compare to the latest one.
As I told you previously the best solution would be to ask your radiologist to give his version on both MRI report.
Hope this answer your query.
Take care
