Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma of the falx

M Salcman et al. Neurosurgery. 1992 Aug.

Abstract

Intracranial cartilaginous tumors are unusual lesions, of which myxoid chondrosarcoma is the rarest. We describe this tumor arising from the falx in a 28-year-old woman treated at recurrence with a second operation and a radiation implant. The behavior of classic chondrosarcoma and mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is also reviewed.
