description | Chodrosarcoma is the third most common primary malignancy of the bone, it is considered the most frequent malignancy of the chest wall. Chondrosarcoma at the costovertebral junction is rare and few cases are described in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION: The authors present a case of a 47-year-old female with a complaint of chronic pain in the right posterior upper chest, dyspnea, and episodes of dizziness. The diagnosis of low-grade chondrosarcoma at the posterior costovertebral junction was made by video-assisted thoracic surgery and computed tomography. The surgical management included resection of the tumor and parts of adjacent ribs. DISCUSSION: Chondrosarcoma is chemotherapy and radiotherapy-resistant. The total surgical excision of the tumor with sufficient margins is usually curative. CONCLUSION: A follow-up is necessary because of the potential for recurrence. |
