Primary Extraskeletal Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma Arising from the Pancreas
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report here on a case of primary extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma that arose from the pancreas. A 41-year-old man was evaluated by CT to find the cause of his abdominal pain. The CT scans showed a heterogeneously enhancing necrotic mass with numerous areas of coarse calcification, and this was located in the left side of the retroperitoneal space and involved the body and tail of the pancreas. Portal venography via the celiac axis also showed invasion of the splenic vein. Following excision of the mass, it was pathologically confirmed to be primary extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma that arose from the pancreas.

Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma of the pleura.
A 52 year old man developed an extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (ESMC) arising from the pleura. Clinically, the tumour mimicked a mesothelioma. Fine needle biopsy was consistent with the diagnosis of sarcomatoid mesothelioma. Histological examination of multiple tumour samples, supported by immunohistochemical characterization, made it possible to correctly diagnose extraskeletal mesenc...
متن کاملPrimary retroperitoneal extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma involving the vena cava: A case report
The current study presents a case of extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (ESMC) involving the vena cava that originally occurred in the retroperitoneum of a 61-year-old female. Following excision of the masses, pathological examination confirmed a diagnosis of primary ESMC. Mesenchymal chondrosarcomas are extremely rare in comparison to conventional chondrosarcomas and even more so when ar...

Extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (EMCS) is a rare malignant cartilaginous tumor arising from the soft tissues. The most common areas of extraskeletal origin are the lower extremities, the orbits and the central nervous system, among others. In this study, the case of primary EMCS arising from the right buccal region in a 26-year old female is presented. Histological and immunohistochemi...
متن کاملExtraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma arising from kidney: a case report and literature review
Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (MC) is a malignant tumor that usually arises from cartilaginous structures. Primary renal MS is extremely rare. Here, we reported a 33-year-old woman with solitary left renal MS presented with asymptomatic gross hematuria. Abdominal Ultrasonography and CT revealed a 7 cm mass within the left kidney with obvious calcification. The tumour was removed by radical nephrec...
متن کاملPrimary extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma arising from the iliac vein
The iliac vein is an extremely rare site for mesenchymal chondrosarcoma, and patients with primary extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma arising from a vein always suffer a very poor prognosis. We report a case of a 45-year-old female who presented with a 5-month history of left leg edema in 2015. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a large mass in the left iliac vein with scattered...
