Abstract
- Chordoma is a rare tumor, arising from notochord remnants, which usually occurs in the axial skeleton and rarely metastasizes. Although there have been 3 previous reports of metastatic disease to the facial bones from sacrococcygeal chordoma, this is the first to describe spread to the mandible from a vertebral primary chordoma.
