Skull base chordomas are rare, malignant tumors with incidence rate fewer than 0.1 per 100,000 inhabitants per year that arise from primitive notochord remnants of the axial skeleton and make up about 25-35% of all chordoma cases. Most cases of advanced chordoma are extraosseous, with lesions extending beyond osseous margins. Previous case reports have described chordomas as firm, meaty masses protruding from the posterior nasopharyngeal wall, but in the present case report, the gross findings revealed a nasopharyngeal chordoma with a soft, cystic appearance. This chordoma was treated with wide excision and post-operative radiotherapy. In this work, we report an unusual case of cystic nasopharyngeal chordoma found incidentally in a papillary thyroid cancer patient. CASE REPORT
