Description

This is a case of sacral chordoma requiring resection of the rectum. The patient is a 44 year old male, whose chief complaint was urinary retention. Both CT and MRI showed a large tumor in the pelvis, which was diagnosed as chordoma by biopsy. Resection of the tumor and Mile's operation were done because Ba enema demonstrated the invasion to the rectum. The level of resection of the sacrum was S2/3. Walking ability is consequently almost normal, but incontinence and mild hypoesthsia remain. There is no recurrence and he has returned to his occupation 15 months after the operation.
