Metastatic disease-ovarian cancer

My mom has a 2 x 3.5 cm soft tissue mass in the paraspinal region.  On the report it read that it most likely represents a site of metastatic disease. What exactly does this mean? Does it mean the ovarian cancer has spread to the bone or spine??

It means it COULD be that the cancer has spread.  It is not a definite at this juncture.
