: Sacral chordomas are rare, locally invasive tumors that pose significant surgical and oncological challenges due to their anatomical complexity, proximity to critical structures, and resistance to conventional therapies. : A literature search focused on contemporary multidisciplinary management of sacral chordoma was conducted. An illustrative case of such a multidisciplinary approach is presented. : Achieving optimal outcomes necessitates a multidisciplinary approach that balances en-bloc resection with negative margins and preservation of biomechanical stability and neurological function. Negative resection margins are a key determinant of long-term survival and reduced recurrence, particularly for tumors involving the upper sacrum (S1-S2). While postoperative radiation therapy provides adjunctive benefits, precision in surgical planning and execution remains paramount. Emerging technologies, such as augmented reality and 3D-printed anatomical models, are enhancing surgical precision, while the role of multidisciplinary surgical teams in improving outcomes requires further study. : This review highlights the complexities of sacral chordoma management, focusing on surgical strategies, functional trade-offs, and future directions to optimize oncological and functional outcomes.
骶骨脊索瘤是罕见的局部侵袭性肿瘤,由于其解剖结构复杂、靠近关键结构且对传统治疗有抗性,给手术和肿瘤治疗带来了重大挑战。进行了一项聚焦于骶骨脊索瘤当代多学科管理的文献检索,并展示了一个这种多学科方法的实例。要实现最佳治疗效果,需要一种多学科方法,平衡整块切除且切缘阴性与保留生物力学稳定性和神经功能。阴性切除切缘是长期生存和降低复发的关键决定因素,特别是对于累及上骶骨(S1 - S2)的肿瘤。虽然术后放射治疗有辅助益处,但手术规划和执行的精准度仍然至关重要。诸如增强现实和3D打印解剖模型等新兴技术正在提高手术精准度,而多学科手术团队在改善治疗效果方面的作用需要进一步研究。本综述强调了骶骨脊索瘤管理的复杂性,重点关注手术策略、功能权衡以及优化肿瘤学和功能结局的未来方向。
