연골육종이 소아의 종골에 발생한 경우는 매우 드물다. 13세 환자가 수개월간 지속된 우측종골 부위의 통증으로 내원하여 시행한 방사선 검사상 우측 종골의 골밀도의 증가 및 석회화와 피질골 파괴, 그리고 종골 주위 조직의 석회화 침범 소견이 관찰되었고, 조직검사상 원발성 연골육종으로 진단되어 슬하부 절단술 및 술후 항암요법을 시행하였으며 12개월째 경과 관찰중이며 재발이나 원격전이는 발견되지 않았다.

In certain low-grade malignant bone tumors such as chondrosarcoma or frequent recurrent benign bone tumors as ossifying fibroma, radical treatment may provide a good chance for cure. And large bony defect after the radical treatment can be filled with the massive bone graft. Recent advances in clinical microsurgery have made free vascularized bone graft a clinical reality, and Taylor in 1975, first reported the technique of free vascularized fibula graft for the reconstruction of large tibial defect with excellent clinical results. We tried wide excision and free vascularized fibula graft in 5 patients with ossifying fibroma and one patient with chondrosarcoma from January 1984 to December 1994 and followed for more one year. The shortest bony defect was 7cm and the longest bony defect was 20cm and mean bony defect was 13cm. All patients were evaluated clinically and roentgenographycally on basis of functional recovery and bony union. All patients showed satisfactory functional recovery with sound bony union and showed bony hypertrophy. And, local recurrence was not seen.

An 11-year-old female, Golden retriever dog with a history of solid mass on the chest wall was referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Seoul National University. The mass was firm on palpation. A soft tissue opacity mass with calcified foci around the right 7th rib and extrapleural patterns around the right 5th rib and 7th rib was shown on thoracic radiographs. The mass of the 7th rib has a mixed-echo pattern with a strong acoustic shadowing and internal vascular signals on ultrasonography. On CT scan, the mass showed contrast enhancement effect, expansive pattern of intrathoracic and extrathoracic legion around costochondral junction. The 7th rib appeared mildly lytic. The mass of the 5th rib had a soft tissue swelling without bone lysis. The mass was diagnosed as a sarcoma by fine needle biopsy. Therefore, the mass was surgically removed. Subsequent histopathological study found the mass was chondrosarcoma.

Mesenchymal chondrosarcomas are rare malignant tumors of the bone and soft tissue. Spinal mesenchymal chondrosarcomas are even rarer and, to the best of our knowledge those that are concomitantly located in the intradural and extradural regions, have never been reported. We report a case of a 25-year-old man with back pain and bilateral progressive weakness of the lower extremities. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a markedly enhanced dumbbell-shaped mass at the T7 level. The lesion was intradurally located at the left side of the spinal cord, and extended extradurally to the extraforminal space through the T7-8 intervertebral foramen. The tumor was completely excised through a posterior approach. Microscopic examination and immunohistochemical studies confirmed mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. Postoperative radiation therapy and chemotherapy were also performed to prevent local recurrence and metastasis. The patient has been symptom-free for two years after surgery. Herein, we reviewed and discussed the clinical characteristics, treatments, and outcomes of primary intraspinal mesenchymal chondrosarcomas in the literature.

Today, ultrasound imaging is being widely used to assess soft tissue lesions in the maxillofacial region. However, ultrasound investigations of intra-osseous lesions are rare, especially for tumors of the jaws. This report emphasized the capability of this useful imaging modality in identification of the characteristics of malignant conditions involving the bone. Mesenchymal chondrosarcoama, one of the unusual malignant conditions of the jaw, was presented in a young male with significant facial swelling. Different imaging modalities parallel with the histopathologic investigation confirmed the diagnosis. Interestingly, destruction of the bony cortex and new bone formation with a characteristic "sun ray appearance", highly suggestive of sarcomas, was manifested on the ultrasonograph. Thus, this report presented the ultrasonographic features of chondrosarcoma of mandible and considered the ultrasonography to be a useful imaging modality to evaluate intra-osseous jaw lesions.

골반골은 악성 골종양의 원발 병소 중 예후가 가장 나쁜 위치이다. 그 중에서도 치골결합 주위에서 발생한 악성 골종양은 그 자체가 극히 드물며, 이곳에 발생한 연골육종은 크기가 작은 경우에도 해부학적인 위치 때문에 절제에 어려움이 있다. 저자들은 치골에 생긴 골반강내 연골육종을 양측 치골지의 절골술 후 도달법으로 전 절제가 가능하였으며, 술후 양호한 기능적 결과를 보였기에 보고하는 바이다.

For the treatment of osteoarthritis, pulsed electromagnetic field stimulus has been suggested as a useful therapeutic method in rehabilitative medicine. Most studies have been performed under low-frequency and low-energy to find out biological properties for stimulating chondrocyte with pulsed magnetic field. In this study, the effect of strong pulse magnetic field on the human chondrosarcoma cells (SW-1353) has been investigated by means of cell counting, morphologies, and gene expression of cartilage extracellular matrix genes. The SW-1353 cells were exposed under the field intensities of 270, 100, 55, 36, and 26 mTesla during 6 hours a day in 5 consecutive days. The pulse magnetic field with an LRC oscillating signal has the pulse width of 0.126 msec and stimulation period of 1 sec. For the 270 and 100 mTesla stimulation, the cell proliferation significantly increased in 21-24% as compared with the non-stimulated cells. Gene expression of cartilage extracellular matrix genes (ACAN, COMP and COL2A1) was assayed by quantitative real time-PCR method. The ACAN gene expression showed a significant brightness, which means the increase on gene expression, compared with the non-stimulated cells. Our results suggest that the strong pulse magnetic field stimulation can be utilized to accelerate cell proliferation and gene expression on human chondrosarcoma cells.

A 7-year-old male Yorkshire Terrier dog was present to an animal clinic and a large soft mass was found in the spleen by radiological examination, and total splenorectomy was performed. Grossly, a large protruded splenic mass was soft to moderately firm and multilobulated. On the cut surface, the mass was off-white to tan, dark red, and rust colored with many cavitation and had gelatinous areas. Histologically, the tumor cells were characterized by coexistence of the primitive mesenchymal tissues and mature or immature cartilage tissues. Primitive mesenchymal areas were composed of round/oval or spindle shaped immature cells with high mitosis. The tumor cells of the cartilage areas were located in basophilic cartilaginous matrix. Intercellular matrix in the cartilaginous areas was stained blue with Masson's trichrome and deep blue with alcian blue, respectively. Immunohistochemically, the cartilaginous tumor cells demonstrated positive reactions for vimentin and S-100, and surrounding mesenchymal tumor cells are immunopositive for vimentin. This case was diagnosed as splenic extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma of a Yorkshire Terrier dog, a toy breed.

70세 여자의 늑막에 발생한 점액양 연골육종의 세침흡인세포학적 소견을 기술하였다. 환자는 4개월간의 좌측 흉통과 2개월간의 호흡곤란을 호소하였고 흉부 X-선 및 전산화 단층촬영상 좌측 늑막강에 위치하여 흉벽을 침범하는 커다란 분엽상 저음영성 종괴와 늑막 삼출액이 관찰되었다. 종괴의 세침 흡인 도말은 세포 밀도가 매우 높았고, 세포질이 풍부한 나원형 세포들이 점액성 물질내에 산재되거나 간혹 뭉쳐 있었다. 풍부한 세포질은 불투명한 청색으로 소포를 함유하기도 하였으며 그 경계는 흩어진 세포에서는 비교적 분명했으나 세포집단에서는 불분명하였다. 핵들은 한쪽으로 치우쳐져 둥글거나 난원형을 보였고 염색질은 미세하였으며 다수의 작은 핵소체를 갖고 있었다. 세포들간의 다형성이나 유사분열은 잘 관찰되지 않았다. 이상의 소견은 연공육종의 세포학적 특징과 유사했으나 연골 성분이 관찰되지 않았고 점액성 물질이 매우 풍부하여 확진을 위한 생검이 시행되었고 조직학적으로 점액양 연골육종임이 확인되었다.
