{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>There are only rare reports of simultaneous multiple thoracic vertebral, epidural, and congenital cutaneous hemangiomas occurring at the same levels.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A 24-year-old male presented with a progressive paraparesis attributed to multiple vertebral hemangiomas (MVH) with epidural extension (i.e. resulting in D1-D3 significant cord compression.), plus congenital cutaneous lesions at the D2-D7 levels. Following preoperative angioembolisation, a D1-D7 laminectomy was performed along with a C7-D8 pedicle screw fixation. Pathologically the bone and cutaneous lesions were spinal cavernous hemangiomas. Postoperatively, the patient regained normal function. As complete excision was not feasible, he subsequently received radiotherapy to prevent tumor recurrence.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>MVH with multilevel epidural extension resulting in significant cord compression and congenital cutaneous lesions should undergo attempted tumor excision followed by radiation therapy where complete removal is not feasible.
