Metastatic adamantinoma involving the spine is an extremely rare occurrence. In this case report, we present a patient with recurrent adamantinoma of the tibia which was found to have metastasized to the spine. The metastatic involvement was diagnosed pathologically, status post CT guided percutaneous core needle biopsy, performed after the patient returned with concerning symptoms and imaging findings suggestive of metastasis. The patient was ultimately treated surgically with vertebrectomy and reconstruction. A thoughtful review of this disease process is explored, emphasizing the pathology, imaging characteristics, and pertinent differential diagnostic considerations. While uncommon, knowledge of this rare disease process and its presentation can improve future patient diagnosis and outcomes.
