Abstract
A 52-year-old woman presented with a thoracic chordoma at T1-3 level as abnormal sensations on the trunk and low extremities and both legs weakness. Almost total resection was possible through posterolateral costotransversectomy. The patient could ambulate at 3 days after the operation without any sequelae. Histologic study revealed a malignant chordoma with no sarcomatous differentiation.
