Abstract
Chordomas are rare primary bone tumours that commonly occur in the sacrococcygeal and skull base region and have high rates of local recurrence. They have a locally aggressive course and the most common site of distant metastasis is the lung. The aim of this case report is to present the imaging findings of instance of muscle metastasis, a rare occurrence in cervical chordoma.
期刊介绍:
Skeletal Radiology provides a forum for the dissemination of current knowledge and information dealing with disorders of the musculoskeletal system including the spine. While emphasizing the radiological aspects of the many varied skeletal abnormalities, the journal also adopts an interdisciplinary approach, reflecting the membership of the International Skeletal Society. Thus, the anatomical, pathological, physiological, clinical, metabolic and epidemiological aspects of the many entities affecting the skeleton receive appropriate consideration.
This is the Journal of the International Skeletal Society and the Official Journal of the Society of Skeletal Radiology and the Australasian Musculoskelelal Imaging Group.
