Spinal angiomas are no uniform type of disorder. They can be classified, according to their location, into
-

Vertebral angiomas
-
II.
Extradural angiomas
-
III.
Intradural angiomas, which can be subdivided into
-
A.
Subarachnoid
-
B.
Subpial
-
C.
Intramedullary angiomas
-
A.
as well as according to their histology, into
-
I.
Racemose arteriovenous angioma (A. racemosum arteriovenosum)
-
II.
Cavernous angioma (A. cavernosum) and closely related or combined with
-
III.
Angioblastoma
Besides the solitary angiomas, there are complex “mixed” angiomas to be distinguished, with simultaneous involvement of two or more structures of the vertebral column and spinal cord (Pia).
