    Author: Luo CC.
    Journal: Arch Phys Med Rehabil; 2005 Feb; 86(2):332-4. PubMed ID: 15706563.
    Abstract:
    Non-Hodgkins lymphoma spine metastasis is a rare entity. A woman in her mid fifties with history of non-Hodgkins lymphoma was admitted to the hospital with bilateral leg weakness, anesthesia, and incontinence. Magnetic resonance imaging of the spine showed diffuse metastatic disease involving the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine. She was treated with radiation therapy and high doses of corticosteroids. When discharged to home, she could ambulate with a rolling walker independently, was capable of self-catheterization, and could insert suppositories for a bladder and bowel program.
