Vertebral haemangiomas (VHs) are benign vascular lesions of vertebral bodies, and are common incidental findings in imaging, occurring in approximately 10–12% of the adult population.1 These lesions consist of thin-walled blood vessels that pervade the medul-lary cavity between trabecula.2 Typically, VHs are asymptomatic and do not require intervention unless causing neurological compromise.Vertebral haemangiomas (VHs) are benign vascular lesions of vertebral bodies, and are common incidental findings in imaging, occurring in approximately 10–12% of the adult population.1 These lesions consist of thin-walled blood vessels that pervade the medul-lary cavity between trabecula.2 Typically, VHs are asymptomatic and do not require intervention unless causing neurological compromise.
