title: Sacrococcygeal chordoma in young adults.
abstract: Sacrococcygeal chordoma in young adults is rare. Two patients, aged 29 and 34 years, are presented. Computed tomography plays an important role in delineating the extent of bony destruction and soft-tissue involvement. This information is necessary for treatment which may include surgery, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. A review of sacrococcygeal chordomas is presented.
