Yes it can.: More likely the spinal tumor affected d sensory and not the motor (muscular) function of the spinal nerve.Follow up with your orthopedic or neurosurgeon. Take care and god bless u! http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/spinal-tumor/ds00594.

Possibly: Complex - MRI spine likely to be equivocal. Best urology exam is thorough history and physical examination and possibly urodynamics to asses nerve and muscle function of the bladder. Neurology referral may also be helpful.
