Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Primary malignant tumors of the spine are rare and most commonly occur in lumbar and thoracic vertebrae. We report a rare case of retroperitoneal chondrosarcoma of L3 that was managed with sagittal en bloc spondylectomy following chemoradiation.
CASE DESCRIPTION: A 26-year-old woman was evaluated for abdominal pain with contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis, which revealed a soft tissue retroperitoneal mass arising from L3. She underwent laparotomy and biopsy, which revealed chondrosarcoma, and she received chemoradiation over a period of 28 weeks 6 days. After repeat imaging, she underwent single-stage combined approach sagittal en bloc spondylectomy of retroperitoneal chondrosarcoma of L3 with right nephrectomy and spine reconstruction. At 3-year follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence on contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis. She demonstrated no gait abnormality or spinal deformity.
CONCLUSIONS: Sagittal en bloc spondylectomy is a preferred surgical approach for eccentrically placed spinal tumors that offers better oncological and functional outcomes.
