Parachordomas are rare neuroepithelial tumours with glial differentiation that are histologically similar to chordomas but do not occur in the axial skeleton.
Pathology
They are generally slow growing and non-disseminating, and sometimes have a late local recurrence after resection.
Location
They usually occur in the deep soft tissues of the extremities or in the skin. Occasionally they may occur in the retroperitoneum.
Radiographic features
They have a nonspecific imaging appearance on CT and MRI. Calcifications may be visualised in the masses at CT.
