Lung Chordoma: A Discussion
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery(2022)
摘要
Chordomas are rare neoplasms arising from remnants of the notochord. We report a case of a 61-year-old woman who underwent workup for bariatric surgery and was found to have bilateral pulmonary nodules on a computed tomographic scan. Video-assisted thoracoscopic wedge resections were performed, and immunohistochemical stains confirmed the diagnosis of chordoma in all lesions. Much of our current knowledge of chordomas comes from axial and extra-axial, nonpulmonary presentations. Surgery appears to be the best treatment option because these tumors are generally chemoresistant. However, there are limited numbers of case reports of this entity.
