METHODS
Seven patients with recurrent sacrococcygeal chordomas presenting with severe local
BACKGROUND
Chordomas are rare, slow-growing malignant neoplasms derived from remnants of the embryological notochord. Pediatric cases comprise only 5% of all chordomas, but more than half of the reported pediatric chordomas are intracranial. For patients of all ages, intracranial chordomas typically
