“…Since then, very few reports appeared in the literature [2,4,9,10], In view of the fact that there are some discrepancies in the literature about the name, the familiar incidence, coincidence with other tumours, age of appearance and histological diagnosis, we believe it important to report an additional case and to discuss, briefly, those points. In addition, we want to report the occurrence of hypercalcemia and throm bocytopenia in this case.…”

A case of the so-called blue rubber-bleb nevus, which appeared in old age, with an anorectal bleeding is presented. Thrombocytopenia and hypercalcemia present in the case, are discussed and the pertinent literature is reviewed. The curious coincidence of 2 cystic squamous cell carcinoma in the groin is discussed, in view of the reported coincidence of other tumours. We propose to call this entity ‘multiple skin and gastro-intestinal haemangiomata’. This because the name describes the main features of this syndrome; moreover, it would call attention to the possibility of gastro-intestinal haemangiomata in such cases.

“…The central nervous hemangiomas are associated clinical syndromes like the Mafucci's syndrome, which is a hemangioma with multiple enchondromas, the Kasabach-Merritt syndrome which is consumption coagulopathy with a hemangioma [11] and the blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome with numerous hemangiomas in the skin and in the gastrointestinal tract [12,13]. Our case was not associated with any syndrome.…”

Cavernous hemangiomas are composed of dilated vessels which are filled with blood. Their common sites of occurrence include the skin, liver and the superficial and the deep soft tissues. We are presenting a rare case of cavernous hemangioma of the spinal cord. CASe RepoRTA 36 years old male presented with low back pain which radiated along the back of the thigh, which was there for 1 year. The pain was aggravated with coughing and sneezing. The routine investigations which included a haemogram, were within normal limits. MRI showed an intradural, extramedullary mass lesion which measured 2.6x2.4x1.6cm at the L5 level, with a mass effect. A radiological diagnosis of a nerve sheath tumour was made and an excision was done [Table/ Fig-1]. pathological FindingsGrossly, the specimen was found to be an oval soft tissue mass of size, 3x2.5x2cm. The cut surface was grey brown [Table/ Fig-2].
