Historically, knowledge about how to deliver such state-of-the-art care has not been widespread, resulting in inconsistent treatment, and, all too often, suboptimal outcomes for chordoma patients. This text is an important step towards broadening that knowledge, and, in turn, improving the care provided to chordoma patients. The book is divided into 4 parts comprising 16 chapters. The first part focuses on the pathophysiology and molecular drivers of chordoma. The second focuses on the epidemiology and clinical history, as well as the histological, oncologic, and radiographic work-up of chordoma. The third part focuses primarily on the technical aspects of surgery for chordoma. It is broken down by anatomic region, with the final two chapters focusing on the soft tissue and bony reconstruction following chordoma resection. The last part focuses on the exciting field of adjuvant therapies for chordoma. This includes both radiation therapies and novel chemotherapeutic options for recurrent, metastatic, and dedifferentiated chordoma. Written by world experts from leading chordoma centers, Chordoma of the Spine serves as a valuable reference for spinal oncologists and general spine surgeons who may encounter chordoma patients in their practice. It provides the most up-to-date evidence regarding all aspects of treating patients with this disease. By focusing on this specific pathology of the spine, this resource condenses expert-level research into understandable treatment algorithms. 606 $aSurgery 606 $aNervous system$xSurgery 606 $aSurgery 606 $aNeurosurgery 606 $aColumna vertebral$2thub 606 $aCāncer d'ossos$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrōnics$2thub 615 0$aSurgery. 615 0$aNervous system$xSurgery. 615 14$aSurgery. 615 24$aNeurosurgery. 615 7$aColumna vertebral 615 7$aCāncer d'ossos 676 $a617 700 $aSciubba$b Daniel M$0929116 701 $aSchwab$b Joseph H$0160079 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910495230103321 996 $aChordoma of the Spine$92088070 997 $aUNINA
