A 68-year-old male presented with thoracic pain and a feeling of “heaviness” in his lower thoracic spine, which had been present for several months. He had previously consulted his general practitioner who had ordered imaging of this region to examine it further. The sensation of heaviness and pain had been progressive, though the patient could not recall for how long. In 1977, the patient had been involved in a car accident wherein his car had been hit from behind. In the year prior to presentation, the patient had had a prostatic adenoma of the median lobe removed (Fig. 1).
