MULTIPLE SPINAL METASTASIS OF COLORECTAL ADENOCARCINOMA; CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIEW
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 2019, Vol 30, Issue 2
Abstract
Gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas are very aggressive tumors. In the later stages of the disease, widespread metastases may occur. Bone metastases of colorectal cancers are usually osteolytic lesions. Multiple spinal metastases are very rare at the stage of diagnosis. We present a case of colorectal adenocarcinoma with multiple spinal metastasis which was operated due to C7 cervical pathological compression fracture and accompanied by literature review.
