Brief Answer:
Reports are contradictory.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Intraosseous hemangioma is a benign lesion and it remains like that for years. It is not worrisome. The compression in T10 and T12 is associated with pain in the area and the chances of nerve root compression are present. This needs medical treatment as well as regular exercise to prevent the further progression.
Both the reports are contradictory. You can show the previous report to your current radiologist and ask his opinion regarding the accuracy of reports.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
The fresh MRI report is doubtful.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
If there was a compression at T5 and T6 in the earlier MRI, it should have shown on the fresh MRI also as complete decompression is rare after proper healing. You need to get your fresh MRI films re evaluated from another radiologist and ask him to compare with the previous films. Alternately a repeat MRI scan will help in determining the changes since last MRI.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.
