The authors describe a case of sacrococcygeal chordoma which was detected in a 49-year old male subject in the course of a clinical examination. Bone X-rays and CT-scans confirmed the diagnosis of sacral tumor, and radical excision was performed via combined abdominal and sacral approach. The chief characteristics of these rare tumors are further discussed, with particular focus on the therapeutical problems arising in relation with the fact that surgical removal, alone, can prevent tumor recurrences.
作者描述了一例在一名49岁男性患者临床检查过程中发现的骶尾部脊索瘤病例。骨骼X线和CT扫描确诊为骶骨肿瘤，并通过腹部和骶骨联合入路进行了根治性切除。文中进一步讨论了这些罕见肿瘤的主要特征，特别关注了由于仅通过手术切除就能预防肿瘤复发这一事实而产生的治疗问题。
