| Abstrakt: | This case report describes the remarkable recovery journey of a 42-year-old male who suffered from neurological symptoms over three months, including tingling in both lower extremities. It was determined that a spinal hemangioma, a normally non-cancerous medical ailment, was the cause of these symptoms, which were also accompanied by difficulty walking and problems with bowel and bladder incontinence. A laminectomy and spinal cord decompression surgery were the two most significant medical procedures the patient underwent as part of his treatment, followed by a carefully structured rehabilitation program, as part of a holistic approach. Astoundingly, the patient's physical condition showed considerable improvements in several areas just one week after surgery. The reduction of pain, increased range of motion (ROM), and increased muscular strength were the aspects where these changes were most noticeable. This quick recovery reflects the benefit of combining surgical and rehabilitation techniques in these patients. The patient was prescribed a home exercise program (HEP) at the time of his discharge from the hospital so that he could continue his recovery independently in the comfort of his own home. This HEP was created to ensure that the patient could keep up and continue to make progress. This case report sheds light on the benefits of adopting a comprehensive strategy while treating spinal hemangiomas. The combined efforts of the surgical and rehabilitation therapy teams greatly improved the patient's prognosis. This aspect of synergy helped develop a whole treatment strategy that included both surgical tumor removal and crucial postoperative rehab for optimum healing and function.
