Chordoma is a rare tumor, but has a serious effect on the quality of life of patients. This study aims to assess the overall knowledge structure and trends in the development of chordoma research using a bibliometric analysis and visualization tool. Research datasets were acquired from the Web of Science. VOS viewer and CiteSpace visualization software were used to demonstrate collaborations and correlations. Annual trends in publications, distribution, H-index status, co-authorship status, and research hotspots were analyzed. A total of 1844 publications from 2012 to 2022 were included. The number of chordoma-related publications increased year by year. The United States contributed the most publications (717) and had the highest total citations (10130) and H-index (50), followed by China. The United States was also the country most frequently involved in international cooperation. The most productive organization involved in chordoma research was Massachusetts General Hospital. World Neurosurgery (114) published the most papers on chordoma. Hornicek FJ was the most productive author over the last decade (41). Initially, diagnosis and the location of onset captured the attention of the research society. Quality of life, risk factors, disability, minimally invasive surgical techniques, molecular targeted therapy, and radiotherapy technology are the research hotspots in recent years. Indeed, this study provides important insights into the overall landscape of chordoma research and also contributes to the further investigation of the international frontier of chordoma.
脊索瘤是一种罕见肿瘤，但对患者生活质量有严重影响。本研究旨在使用文献计量分析和可视化工具评估脊索瘤研究的整体知识结构和发展趋势。研究数据集从科学网获取。使用VOSviewer和CiteSpace可视化软件展示合作与相关性。分析了出版物的年度趋势、分布、H指数状况、共同作者状况和研究热点。纳入了2012年至2022年的1844篇出版物。脊索瘤相关出版物数量逐年增加。美国的出版物数量最多（717篇），总被引次数最高（10130次），H指数最高（50），其次是中国。美国也是参与国际合作最频繁的国家。参与脊索瘤研究产出最多的机构是麻省总医院。《世界神经外科》（114篇）发表的关于脊索瘤的论文最多。Hornicek FJ是过去十年产出最多的作者（41篇）。最初，诊断和发病部位引起了研究界的关注。生活质量、危险因素、残疾、微创外科技术、分子靶向治疗和放射治疗技术是近年来的研究热点。事实上，本研究为脊索瘤研究的整体格局提供了重要见解，也有助于进一步探究脊索瘤的国际前沿。
