Hi!
Well, may be you have a hemangioma or an arterio-venous malformation around the spine. If it is not causing nay symptoms then there is no cause of worry. IT could be an incidental finding. If it is causing pain, then it may be treated with radiation.
Please consult your gynecologist regarding this. Take care!
