Many thanks!
Chordoma is a rare malignant tumor that arises from notochord remnants. Chordomas account for 1 to 4% of all bone tumors.l They occur in older adults with the highest prevalence in the fifth to seventh decade. The ratio of male to female is two to one. Due to their origin in the notochord, chordomas occur in the mid-line of the axial skeleton. One half of cases occur in the sacrococcygeal region and one third occur at the base of the skull.

there are references to undifferentiated neoplasias and undifferentiated lymphoma, so I don\'t see why the above shouldn\'t work for cordoma. Suerte!

poorly differentiated


Explanation:
Although a web search only turns up instances of "well-differentiated chordoma". BTW, Mosby's says this is a congenital brain tumour that usually develops in a foetus (just to get you straight on the bone).
