Chordomas are rare notochordal malignancies typically occurring in the axial skeleton. Less than 100 extra-axial chordomas have been reported. We describe a unique chordoma of the anteromedial thigh. The clinical presentation of extra-axial chordomas is highly variable; thus, recognizing this entity in the differential diagnoses of extra-axial bone/soft tissue tumors is important.
脊索瘤是罕见的脊索恶性肿瘤,通常发生于中轴骨骼。据报道,轴外脊索瘤少于100例。我们描述了一例大腿前内侧的独特脊索瘤。轴外脊索瘤的临床表现高度多变;因此,在轴外骨/软组织肿瘤的鉴别诊断中识别这一实体很重要。
