Dear Ashraf Laparoscopic chordoma surgery is possible by rectal mobilization and hypogastric arterial isolation were combined with a posterior sacrococcygectomy for the resection of a large sacrococcygeal chordoma. You might be aware of that chordomas are rare, slowly growing, locally aggressive neoplasms of bone that arise from embryonic remnants of the notochord. These tumors typically occur in the axial skeleton. The combination of laparoscopic pelvic dissection and radical posterior sacrococcygectomy is safe, effective, oncologically sound, and should be considered for all patients with a large proximal sacrococcygeal chordoma is surgeon is trained in minimal access surgery. It should be performed by an orthoscopic surgeon well trained in minimal access surgery. With regards Sadhana |
