Chordoma is a rare and aggressive cancer. This case report details a successful transoral surgical removal of a cervical chordoma in a 30-year-old woman.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Head and Neck Surgery

Background:

  • Chordoma is a rare, aggressive bone tumor originating from notochordal remnants.
  • Cervical chordomas present unique surgical challenges due to their location and potential for recurrence.
  • High local recurrence rates underscore the need for effective surgical management strategies.

Observation:

  • A 30-year-old female presented with a retropharyngeal mass and altered speech quality.
  • The patient was diagnosed with a cervical chordoma.
  • Symptoms included a palpable mass in the throat and noticeable changes in vocalization.

Findings:

  • A transoral surgical approach facilitated complete tumor removal.
  • The surgical strategy aimed for maximal resection while preserving function.

  • Post-operative outcomes were favorable, with no immediate signs of recurrence.

    • Implications:

    • The transoral approach is a viable and effective method for managing cervical chordomas.
    • Complete surgical excision is crucial for improving patient prognosis and reducing recurrence.
    • This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and tailored surgical techniques for rare bone tumors.
