Solitary lymph node metastasis without local recurrence of primary chordoma

Abstract: Chordoma is a malignant neoplasm believed to arise from notochord remnants. Its incidence is highest in the sixth decade and is generally regarded as a locally aggressive tumor with slow progression growth rate. Its metastatic incidence ranges from 5 to 40%, and it is generally believed that metastases without local recurrence of primary neoplasm are extremely rare. We report a case of a 38-year-old male patient with solitary inguinal lymph node metastasis without local recurrence of a previously surgically tr… Show more

“…The most common location is the sacrococcygeal region (40%-50%) and the base of the skull (35%-40%) followed by the vertebral bodies (15%-20%) [15,53]. Distant metastases to the lungs, bone, soft tissues, lymph nodes, liver, and skin have been reported in up to 43% of patients [12,27,48]. Treatment of chordomas is described in various studies [2, 4-6, 13, 14, 20, 26, 29, 31, 39, 44, 47, 56, 57].…”

“…Treatment is challenging because of their unique location, close vicinity to key structures, contiguous spread and relapse. The reported incidence of metastases in the literature vary widely from 3 to 48% with the lungs, liver, bone and lymph nodes being the commonly involved sites [1][2][3][4]. We describe two cases of metastatic sacral chordoma, stable on molecular targeted therapy.…”

“…Metastases are known to occur more commonly when the primary is located in the sacrococcygeal region, compared to the clivus [1]. Metastatic disease has been reported in almost every organ: lung, liver, bone, lymph node, brain, solid abdominal organs, peritoneum and even in the breast [1][2][3][4]18]. Occurrence range of the metastases has been reported to be as early as 2-3 months [19,20] to as late as 9-10 years after initial treatment [19].…”

“…Отмечены метастазы при светлоклеточной хондросаркоме [23], склерозирующей эпителиоидной фи-бросаркоме кости [24], лейомиосаркоме кости [25], карци-носаркоме кости [26], ангиосаркоме кости [27]. Описаны лимфогенные метастазы при всех формах хордомы -клас-сической хордоме [28], дедифференцированной хордоме [29], экстрааксиальной хордоме [30]. Встречаются метаста-зы в лимфатических узлах при гигантоклеточной опухоли кости [31] и ее злокачественном аналоге [32].…”
