Study summary

This research is a case series analysis to evaluate aggressive vertebral hemangiomas. It focuses on clinical presentation, diagnostic imaging accuracy (X-ray, MRI, MSCT, angiography), and treatment efficacy. The primary goal is to establish optimal management protocols.

Read the detailed description

Hybrid methodology integrating retrospective case reviews (from Assiut University Hospital's Orthopedic Surgery Department) with synthesis of existing literature.

Objectives:

Characterize clinical presentations and imaging findings. Compare diagnostic accuracy across modalities. Analyze treatment outcomes, including procedural success rates and complications.

Tools:

Imaging: X-ray for initial screening, MRI/MSCT for soft tissue and spinal cord involvement, angiography for vascular mapping.

Study population

Patients with symptomatic, radiologically confirmed aggressive spinal hemangiomas treated at Assiut University Hospital. Excludes incidentally discovered cases.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients diagnosed with aggressive spinal hemangiomas based on clinical symptoms and imaging findings.
  • Cases confirmed through diagnostic modalities such as X-ray, MRI, MSCT, or angiography.
  • Patients presenting with symptoms such as pain, neurological deficits, or spinal instability attributable to the hemangioma.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with incidentally discovered spinal hemangiomas (asymptomatic cases found during evaluations for unrelated conditions).
  • Cases lacking sufficient diagnostic evidence to confirm aggressive spinal hemangioma.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 30, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
