22-JANUARY-2003  ABEL-AZZIZ ABBAS MUHAMED 51 YEARS RECURRENT CHORDOMA OF THE SACRUM, L5, ILIOPSOAS MUSCLES AND ILIAC ARTERIES.

 

Comments  

bullet

The different histologic results gave the answer of chordoma, but clinically we are dealing with chondrosarcoma. Total resection is impossible because the running neural structures running inside the sacral bone are also involved.

Anamnesis

bullet

The patient a Syrian citizen was operated by me 06-November-2000 for chordoma of the sacrum with fixation of the spine with the iliac bones using modified rods with preservation of the neural structures running inside the sacro-coccygeal region. He previously underwent radiotherapy. The patient improved after the surgery and CT-scan done 07-November-2000 showing remnants of the tumor. 15-August-2001 started to complain of pain right gluteal area and feeling heaviness of the gluteal muscles.

bullet

The patient then came 21-October-2001 with MRI of the pelvis done the same day showing reduction of the tumor.

bullet

The patient then came 20-January-2003 telling that his condition is deteriorating and CT-scan showing huge recurrence of the tumor.

bullet

On examination: the patient in agonizing pain, limping with exaggerated scoliotic stance. SLRS was 40 degrees with pain right side and 40 degrees with more pain in the left. There is weak dorsiflexion both feet 4/5 and planterflexion left foot 4/5.

bullet

The old incision refreshed and the tumor was followed and piece-meal resection of the tumor was proceeded with drilling of the bone around the lesion with preservation of the neural elements. No CSF leak. Routine closure of the wound. After the operation it seems that the fixating device is insufficient, for what another surgery was performed to aid the fixating device with parallel rods to augment its strength. Smooth postoperative recovery. The radicular pain decreased and the power of both feet normalized. He was sent to the ward.

Follow Up

bullet

The patient then came 13-December-2004 telling that the last week he cannot set or walk. SLRS was 70 degrees both sides with pain. Normal micturition and defecation, but drop right foot.  There is hypalgesia left perianal area. The patient was sent for investigations and the device is holding acceptable, but the tumor recurrence in huge amount. The patient then disappeared.

 

Skyra MRI with all clinical applications in the run since 28-Novemeber-2013.


Inomed Riechert-Mundinger System, with three point fixation is the most accurate system in the market. The microdrive and its sensor gives feed back about the localization.
