Abstract
|
|
|
|
Chordoma is a tare, slow-growing, but relentless tumor which arises from primitive notochodal remnants. This tumor is a locally aggtesive, rarely, if ever, rnetastasmng tumor. Although it occurs primarily in the sphenooccipital and sacrococcygeal regions, it may oxmionally present with a nasopharyngeal mass in the intervening vertebrae of the cervical spine such as this case. The treatment of choice is a surgical excision with radiation therapy. The authors experienced a rare case of paw confirmed cervical chordoma in a 65-year-old Korean female who had suffered from dysphagia for several months. We report this case with literature review with emphasis on the histogenesis of chordoma and dinopathologic features.
