Reports on a long-term study involving 400 patients with microscopically confirmed chordoma, revealing an overall prevalence of about 1 per million in the United States and a median survival time of about 6 years after diagnosis. It also shows that cranial, spinal and sacral locations each represent about one third of the total number of cases, and that males are affected about twice as often as females.
