Abstract

As reported in the literature, extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of soft tissue, and it has a unique, distinctive histologic picture and poor prognosis.The common sites are the orbit, the cranial dura mater, the neck, the thigh, the leg, the chest wall, and the retroperitoneum. Radical excision of the tumor seems to be the primary treatment.We report experience with a very rare case of extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma in the posterior mediastinum.
