Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is a rare and aggressive bone tumor with few reports of primary tumor in the chest wall.
CASE: We report a case of a 17-year-old male presenting with back pain and a posterior mediastinal mass. Imaging demonstrated what was thought to be a benign chondral tumor. The patient underwent resection which confirmed extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. The patient declined proposed adjuvant chemotherapy and underwent multiple resections for rapid local reoccurrence. He ultimately elected for hospice care.
CONCLUSION: The case highlights the importance of close disease monitoring and exploration of treatment options, given lack of established guidelines and consistent tumor features.
