abstract={Intramedullary cavernous angioma (ImCA), which was originally thought to be an uncommon vascular lesion, has shown an increased incidence since the advent of magnetic resonance imaging. We present a case of multiple ImCAs in the cervicothoracic region. The patient presented with slow, progressive motor weakness in the upper and lower limbs. Surgical intervention was performed because of misdiagnosis as a spinal cord tumor. The patient underwent decompression surgery because no neoplasm was noted in the course of the operation. The angioma regressed on follow-up magnetic resonance images 3 months later.},
