Abstract

Chondroblastoma was introduced as a rare benign cartilaginous neoplasm by Codman in 1931. It described by Jaffe and Lichtenstein in 1942 as a benign cartilaginous neoplasm that represents less than 1% of all primary bone tumor. It commonly arises in the epiphysis of long bone but, it occurs very rare in temporal area. Sometimes, microscopic identification of chondroblastoma and giant cell granuloma is difficult. An immunohistochemical studies was performed for S-100 protein which is useful in arriving at the correct diagnosis. Treatment modalities are total curettage, en-bloc excision, irradiation, and radiation combined with surgical excision. But radiation therapy was controversial. We describe a case of chondroblastoma which was arisen in the right temporal area and the recurrence that was treated by surgical excision and radiation therapy with review of literature.
