This photo shows metastatic prostate cancer which has spread to the spine. The arrow and surrounding white area marks the invertebrate of the spine which has been affected by cancer.

A patient with such a condition would be expected to experience pain as a result. If the cancer causes pressure to be put on the spinal nerve, then mobility problems could arise. The bones are an area often affected by metastatic prostate cancer.
