Purpose: Demonstrate a clinical case of poorly differentiated chordoma, confirmed using a wide range of research methods. Material and methods: A 63-year-old female patient with poorly differentiated chordoma who underwent immunohistochemical examination, MRI, CT and scintigraphy. Results: An immunohistochemical study confirmed the morphological affiliation of the tumor, supplemented by the data of imaging methods. Conclusion: The poorly differentiated type of chordoma has a specific immunohistochemical picture, however, differential diagnosis based on imaging methods is currently a difficult task.
