| ABSTRACT |
|
Recently, the authors have experienced a case of intracranial meningeal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma.
Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is a rare tumor of the bone and soft tissue. It has been reported that the most common site of their extra-osseous origin is the central nervous system.
Precise differential diagnosis should be done because of 1) its similarity to angioblastic meningioma or hemangiopericytoma in pathological aspect, 2) much more malignant tendency. We present one case of intracranial meningeal mesechymal chondrosarcoma with a brief review of the relevant literature. |
| Key Words:
Intracranial mesechymal chondrosarcoma; Extra-osseous origin; Differential diagnosis; Malignant tendency |
