Sinopsis

A rare form of cancer, chordomas are among the most difficult tumors to treat, requiring highly specialized training and surgical expertise. Althoughgenerally slow-growing, chordomas present resection challenges due to their proximity to critical structures including the spinal cord, brainstem,nerves, and arteries. Written by an impressive cadre of internationally-renowned experts, this textbook is the most current, concise, and definitiveresource on diagnosis and management of this complex pathology.

Acclaimed surgeons from Brazil, Canada, Japan, Turkey, the USA, and the UK are contributors. The book starts with a historical overview,epidemiology, molecular pathogenesis, cytogenetics, local invasion and metastasis, and pathology. A thorough discussion covers diagnosticradiological and radionuclide imaging such as MRI, PET; SPECT, PET-CT, and PET-MRI, and clinical traits of skull base and spinal chordomas as definedby imaging modalities. Subsequent chapters explore decision making including selecting the most optimal techniques, surgical procedures, specializedtopics, and new horizons in chordoma treatment.
