A 60-year-old male presents to the hospital with progressive weakness in the legs. The weakness had first developed in the lower portion of the left leg three years ago, which subsequently progressed to the right leg.

The symptoms worsened over time, and six months after the initial examination, the patient presented to the hospital with new complaints.
