On chordomas. Elenevsky and Melnikov (Orth. and Traum., 1928, Vol. 5-6)
This rare tumor, described by Elenevsky and Melnikov, has been observed only 84 times so far: 45 times was a cranial chordoma on Blumenbachii clivus, 37 times - caudal, and 2 times - vertebral. Cranial chordomas are sometimes benign tumors about the size of a walnut, sitting in the clivus on an exostosis and growing into the dura mater to pons Varolii; sometimes malignant, the latter are large and destructive in size, they urinate on the bone, penetrate into the clivus, penetrate into the throat, grow into the brain appendage and lead to death after 1-5 years.
