We report an extremely rare case of spinal epidural capillary hemangioma, where acute spontaneous hemorrhage in the lesion resulted in the hyperacute neurologic deficit within an hour. Since these are benign lesions, the immediate surgical intervention results in a very favorable prognosis and is considered the treatment of choice. Also, this case highlighted and rose the question of a better neurologic improvement in younger age patients with spinal cord injury.
