Chordoma is a rare slow-growing neoplasm thought to arise from cellular remnants of the notochord.The evidence for this is the location of the tumors (along the neuraxis), the similar immunohistochemical staining patterns, and the demonstration that notochordal cells are preferentially left behind in the clivus and sacrococcygeal regions when the remainder of the notochord regresses during ...

EMC was firstly described in 1953 by Stout et al. when they discussed the different species of extraskeletal chondrosarcoma, [2] but EMC concept was firstly proposed in 1972 by Enzinger et al. [3] Brody thought that this was a unique low-grade malignancy with a low growth rate and both clinically and histopathologically distinct anamnesis beside the typical chondrosarcomas. [4]
A person with HME has an increased risk of developing a rare form of bone cancer called chondrosarcoma as an adult. [20] Problems may be had in later life and these could include weak bones and nerve damage. [21] [22] [23] The reported rate of transformation ranges from as low as 0.57% [16] to as high as 8.3% of people with HME. [24]
