Abstract
|
|
|
|
Parachordoma is an extremely rare tumor that histologically resembles chordoma of axial skeleton but occurs in a peripheral site. It is considered an indolent neoplasm with potential for local recurrence. We present a case of soft tissue parachordoma at inguinal subcutaneous tissue which recurred 2 months after primary simple excision under local anesthesia and was performed revisional wide excision. Bone scan showed no other metastatic lesion. Immunohistochemical findings revealed tumor cells to be reactive to EMA, S-100 protein, vimentin and cytokeratin.
