Résumé

Chordoma is a rare tumor. It has unique clinical, pathological and immunohistochemical characteristics. Accurate diagnosis is essential as the tumor shows an aggressive clinical course and requires a multimodal therapeutic approach. A case with wide spread distant metastatic disease that was initially thought to represent metastatic thyroid carcinoma is presented. Appropriate clincopathologic correlation and the histologic findings raised the possibility of poorly differentiated chordoma. The diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemistry for INI-1 and Brachyury. The approach to the diagnosis emphasizing the clinical and pathologic findings of this case is discussed and reviewed in the context of the published literature.

Résumé

Chordomas are malignant bone neoplasms that originate from embryonic notochordal remnants, and they affect the skull base and the spine1. The cervical spine chordoma extends rarely into retropharyngeal space. However, primary chordoma of retropharyngeal space with no involvement of axial skeleton is very rare. These tumours are called as extraosseous chordoma2. We present a rare case of a 36-year old male patient presenting with extraosseous retropharyngeal space chordoma with no bone involvement anywhere in the entire skeleton.

Résumé

Sarcomatous transformation [dedifferentiated chordoma] in chordoma is a very rare condition and has been emphasized as a distinct entity because of its more aggressive clinical course. Here we describe a case of dedifferentiated chordoma arising from the sacrococcygeal region of a 60-year-old man, in third tumor recurrence. This tumor showed features of sarcoma with areas more typical of chordoma The chordoma-like areas expressed cytokeratin, epithelial membrane antigen and S-100 protein in all tumor cells and the spindle-cell component exhibited vimentin positivity in all of them but negative for other markers. The results showed that the sarcomatous areas as seen in the recurrent chordoma lack epithelial cell features of chordoma and suggest the possibility of altered differentiation pathway of the tumor stem cell or emergence of a new malignant cell population within the recurrent tumor

Résumé

Cordomas são neoplasias raras que se originam dos remanescentes da notocorda primitiva 50% dos casos têm localização sacral, sendo mais frequente ao nível de S4/S5. Nós descrevemos um caso de cordoma sacral ao nível de S1 e discutimos a apresentação clínica, achados de imagem, tratamento cirúrgico e evolução.


Chordomas are rare neoplasias originating from the remaining primitive notochord. 50% of the cases have sacral localization, being more frequent at levels S4/S5. Here we report a case of sacral chordoma at level S1 and discuss its clinical presentation, imaging findings, surgical treatment, and progress.

Résumé

Chondroid chordoma is a variant of chordoma; it may rarely involve the petrous temporal bone and has a high propensity for recurrence. Chordoma rarely metastasizes but it is, nevertheless, associated with a poor outcome. We report a rare case of chondroid chordoma with extensive recurrence and pulmonary metastases.

Résumé

OBJECTIVE: The authors report the clinical, radiological, and surgicalfindings ofpatients with craniocervical junction tumors surgically treated in the institution over the last 8 years. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A retrospective study was performed. Clinical, radiological, and operative data were evaluated, and follow-up information was obtained from outpatient examinations, and telephone interviews. RESULTS: There were 25 patients consisting of nine chordomas, eight meningiomas, three cysts, two schwannomas, one each of aneurysmal bone cyst, plasmacytoma, and metastasis. Twenty-nine operative procedures were performed, classified as 12 anterior nine posterior-lateral, and eight posterior approaches. Gross total removal was achieved in 17 cases, subtotal removal in six cases, and partial removal in two cases. Re-operation was performed in six cases. Median follow-up time was 31 months. The authors found significant improvement in Karnofsky Performance Scale scores. CONCLUSION: Appropriate surgical approaches provide successful tumor removal with less surgical morbidities, nevertheless recurrent tumors occasionally occur and so, long-term follow-up is mandatory.

Résumé

A rare case of a 24-year old male patient with 'parachordoma' of left tibia having the characteristic histopathological and histochemical features of chordoma occurring in an unconventional site, which was clinically and radiologically diagnosed as osteoclastoma is presented here. The case is presented considering the extreme rarity of the lesion in literature in long bones.

Résumé

A case of a recurrent sacro-coccygeal chordoma is reported which histologically showed an admixture of a conventional chordoma and a pleomorphic sarcoma. These tumours are called dedifferentiated chordomas and carry an ominous prognosis.

Résumé

Os autores apresentam um caso de cordoma sacroccígeo em um menino de 9 anos de idade. O paciente foi admitido no hospital com história de dor na regiäo sacral e nos membros inferiores com dois anos de evoluçäo, piorando nas últimas quatro semanas. O exame físico revelou atrofia muscular moderada em ambos os membros inferiores, diminuiçäo do reflexo patelar e presença do sinal de Lasègue à esquerda. Os exames de imagem da regiäo lombar mostraram um processo expansivo na regiäo sacrococcígea com erosäo parcial do coccix e focos de calcificaçäo, sem evidência de metástases para linfonodos regionais. Foi realizada biópsia diagnóstica que mostrou neoplasia formada por cordöes e ninhos de células de citoplasma amplo, por vezes vacuolado, com núcleos moderadamente pleomórficos com cromatina grumosa. O estudo imunohistoquímico revelou positividade para CK, proteína S-100, CEA, vimetina e EMA. Cordomas säo tumores raros que representam em torno de 2 por cento de todas as neoplasias malignas do osso. Os locais de maior acometimento säo as extremidades da coluna espinhal e säo incomuns nas primeiras duas décadas de vida, especialmente na regiäo sacrococcígea

Résumé

Foram estudados e revistos 8 casos de pacientes com cordomas, diagnosticados no período compreendido entre janeiro de 1953 e dezembro de 1985, sendo 6 de localizaçäo intracraniana, 1 de origem sacrococcígea provável e 1 cervical. Analisaram-se dados clínicos de exame físico e neurológico, bem como métodos diagnósticos. Ressaltam-se a raridade do tumor, o predomínio deste em pacientes do sexo feminino e em território intracraniano (estes dois últimos dados conflitantes com os da literatura) e seu acometimento na faixa etária de 30 anos (idade média de 31 anos). Os cordomas apresentam sintomatologia diversa, dependente de sua localizaçäo; apesar de possuirem caracteres histológicos benignos, a sobrevida em 5 anos é baixa, por causa do seu comportamento infiltrativo, da ocorrência de recidivas após tratamento radioterápico e/ou cirúrgico e de eventuais metástases
