[Intracranial chordoma. Case report of a destructively growing chondroid chordoma in the area of the sella turcica].
Evaluating the literature a short survey is given about chordomas of intracranial localization. A case of a chondroid chordoma growing destructively in the base of the skull is described. Because of the localisation in the region of the sella turcica the first diagnosis was an adenoma of the hypophysis or craniopharyngioma. Although it is a chondroid chordoma 14 months after operation a recidive tumour was seen.
