Low cervical chordoma: report of two cases with documentation by computed tomography and review of the literature.

abstract：:Venous thromboembolism is an important complication in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery. Without prophylaxis, there is a 50% to 60% incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a 10% to 30% incidence of proximal vein thrombosis, and a 1% to 2% rate of fatal pulmonary embolism after total hip replacement.
