I also have a hemangioma on T9-it's a benign tumor that is full of blood vessels, I've read several different articles on these types of tumors, they can grow or then can stay the same throughout life and not bother anyone. If they do grow they can put pressure on the disk or spinal canal or nerves, most doctors won't operate on them unless it's absolutely necessary due to the risk of high bleeding.
