Chondrosarcoma
摘要
Chondrosarcoma is the second most common primary malignant bone tumor, characterized by the production of a cartilaginous matrix. It typically affects the pelvis, proximal femur, and ribs, with a higher incidence in middle-aged and older adults. Imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosis, with radiographs, CT, and MRI aiding in differentiation from benign cartilaginous lesions. Histological grading is essential for prognosis, as higher-grade tumors exhibit more aggressive behavior and increased metastatic potential. Treatment is primarily surgical, as conventional chondrosarcoma is resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
