Abstract
|
|
|
|
Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma is a most highly malignant variant of chondrosarcoma and approximately 10% of chondrosarcomas dedifferentiated into more anaplastic lesions. In addition to the surgical treatment, adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy has been used but with little success. Thus, the primary treatment remains wide excision and chemotherapy or radiation therapy can be used for palliation. This article shows the case of a dediffderentiated chondrosarcoma occuring in proximal femur after conservative surgical treatment of a low grade chondrosarcoma.
