ABSTRACT The Chordoma is a malignant neoplasm of bone tissue, whose location is in the spine or at the base of the skull of human beings. His cells remind of the notochord. It is postulated that it has its origin in Notocordales remains; however the most frequent age of appearance is after 40 years in the male sex. The sites of predilection are the sacrum and the base of the skull. In the final periods of their appearance there are disorders of urination, defecation and mobility of the lower limbs, and visual disorders when their location is at the base of the skull. Radical surgical treatment is not very encouraging because of its anatomical location, hence the usual recurrences. Metastases are rare and almost always the target organs are the lungs, less common in skin and ovary
