At the 1996 meeting of the International Skeletal Society, an idea was put forth that there existed symptomatic lesions of the axial skeleton, morphologically different from chordoma, that were consistent with benign notochordal remnants (rests). A review of the embryological basis for this concept is made, along with an analysis of these lesions, termed giant notochordal rests or benign notochordal cell tumors, that have been reported in the intervening 15 years, with a commentary on their relationship, if any, to chordoma.
在 1996 年国际骨骼协会会议上，提出了一个观点，即存在与脊索瘤形态不同的轴向骨骼症状性病变，这些病变与良性脊索残余（遗迹）一致。本文回顾了这一概念的胚胎学基础，并对这些病变进行了分析，这些病变被称为巨大脊索遗迹或良性脊索细胞肿瘤，在过去的 15 年中已有报道，并对其与脊索瘤的关系进行了评论，如果有的话。
