Chondromyxoid fibroma of the lumbar spine: is tumor recurrence to be expected after subtotal resection? Illustrative case
The long-term outcome of this case demonstrates that total tumor resection may not be necessary for long-term disease control. This finding is in agreement with 14 previously reported lumbar CMFs, with only 1 documented recurrence at 60 months. https://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/CASE25350.
