Vertebral hemangioma case reports
Kaoudi et al., present a case of a bulging sacral S1-S2 hemangioma in the spinal canal that could not be managed in the usual manner. They demonstrated the usefulness of radiofrequency ablation technique as an alternative treatment as well as robotic assistance for optimal placement of the ablation probe within the lesion 1).
