Abstract

We report a rare case of spinal metastasis from eccrine carcinoma of the nape of the neck four years after resection of the primary lesion. There was local recurrence at the same site apart from the spinal metastasis. The spinal lesion involved the pedicle and body of the D-9 vertebra with an extradural component compressing the cord. MR appearance was that of any metastatic deposit, hypointense on T1 and hyperintense on T2.
