CT appearance of clival chordomas
Abstract
Computed tomography of 30 patients with chordomas arising from the clivus was reviewed. All examinations demonstrated bone destruction with a soft tissue mass and varying degrees of encroachment on the adjacent brain. Other CT findings included contrast enhancement, soft tissue calcification and well defined areas of low attenuation.
