The patient experienced progressive occipital headache and imbalance, with imaging showing a destructive midline mass.
Gross total resection was achieved using a transmaxillary–transclival approach, as confirmed by postoperative imaging.
Histopathology revealed essential markers, including positivity for EMA and S100, confirming the diagnosis of chondroid chordoma.
Chondroid chordoma presents similar recurrence risk and prognosis as conventional chordoma, indicating the need for continuous imaging surveillance.
