| Abstrakt: | Pre-operative embolization of spinal tumours are mainly performed using a transarterial approach. Percutaneous embolization of spinal tumours are undertaken much less frequently, though its use has been reported in hypervascular spinal metastases 1,2 and spinal paraganglioma. 3 We present a patient in whom pre-operative percutaneous embolization has been performed to a recurrent lumbar nerve root haemangioblastoma that had previously been embolized using a transarterial approach. Percutaneous embolization, through targeted percutaneous puncture of the extradural component, helped reduce intraoperative blood loss, and minimize risk of spinal ischaemia. (© 2020 The Authors.
