Question
which location is the least likely for a chordoma? a) c2 vertebral level b) speno - occiput c) sacrococcygeal d) clavicle
Brief Explanations
Chordomas are rare bone tumors that arise from embryonic notochord remnants, which are found along the axial skeleton (skull base, vertebral column, sacrococcygeal region). The clavicle is an appendicular bone, not part of the axial skeleton where notochord tissue persists, making it the least likely site for a chordoma.
