A 75-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency room with lower motor weakness and sensory change that gradually developed and was diagnosed with T7–9 epidural space mass lesion and prostate cancer multiple metastasis. (A) A preoperative whole-body bone scan showed hot-uptake of the skull, mandible, multiple ribs, T7–11, and L4–5, suggesting metastasis. (B) In the preoperative enhanced magnetic resonance image, metastasis was confirmed in the T5, T7, and L3 vertebral bodies, and T7–9 cord compression was seen.
