TUNA, H.; AYDIN, V.; BOZKURT, M. e ATTAR, A.. Chordoma of the lumbar spine: a case report. Neurocirugía [online]. 2005, vol.16, n.2, pp.169-172. ISSN 1130-1473.
Chordomas are rare tumors and they may arise anywhere along the spinal column and clival bone. The vast majority of tumors are found at skull base and sacrum. Chordomas involving the lumbar spine are rare. Approximately 6% of spinal chordomas originate in the lumbar vertebrae. We report a case of this chordoma arising from the lumbar vertebra.
