In addition, he experienced urinary retention for 2 weeks. A spinal magnetic resonance imaging scan revealed the presence of an intradural extramedullary solitary mass at the conus medullaris. We performed a laminectomy and completely excised the tumor. The histopathological findings were suggestive of spinal metastasis of RCC. After the operation, the patient did not complain of backache and urinary retention, and paraparesis improved significantly. Spinal metastases of RCC are usually extradurally located. Intradural metastases of RCC are rare. Thus far, only six cases of RCC metastasizing to the cauda equina have been reported; however, RCC metastasis to the conus medullaris has not yet been reported. Conus medullaris lesions may cause symmetrical motor and sensory deficits accompanied by early autonomic system impairment. Surgery is the treatment of choice in cases of resectable RCC metastases, especially in cases of solitary metastasis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.kjms.2010.05.001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,29]],"date-time":"2011-01-29T09:30:42Z","timestamp":1296293442000},"page":"45-48","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Solitary
