Rare Case of Capillary Hemangioma of Bilateral Lower Limb: A Case Report

Compartment syndrome is a serious condition in which the pressure in the limb increases and potentially compromises capillary circulation with subsequent ischaemic complications. This case report presents a case of bilateral lower limb compartment syndrome after bilateral breast reduction for back pain. The patient was an otherwise healthy 24-year-old Afro-Caribbean woman. This report aims to highlight the need for an increased index of suspicion for compartment syndrome in any postoperative patient complaining of lower limb pain.

Spine Case

Capillary hemangiomas are benign vascular neoplasms. When associated with the spine, these growths frequently involve the vertebral body, but rarely have they been reported to occur as intradural lesions, while even more rarely occurring in a true intramedullary location. We report a rare case of an intramedullary capillary hemangioma of the thoracic spinal cord and a review of the literature.

Bilateral Lower Limb

A 57-year-old male presented with recurrent falls, bilateral lower-limb paresthesia, and severe neck pain. Imaging revealed a mass compressing his spinal cord. He was admitted for further workup for spinal cord compression. Within 24 hours of admission, he developed upper-extremity weakness while maintaining lower-extremity function. He underwent urgent decompression of his spinal cord. During exposure, a white, creamy odorless substance was noted. This same substance was found under pressure within the spinal canal. The mass was grossly removed, and the patient's weakness improved postoperatively. Based on the clinical picture, intraoperative presentation, and final histological examination, idiopathic tumoral calcinosis-like lesion was considered as the most appropriate diagnosis.
