Hæmangiom i corpus af L4

Vertebral body hemangiomas are common and have an incidence of 10% in the population. Most often, these are incidentally detected and are asymptomatic. More common in adults, rare in children but when present in the later age group, vertebral hemangiomas are usually symptomatic. These lesions are thought to be venous malformations of the vertebral body.
