Chondroblastoma of thoracic vertebra in young adult causing paraparesis

Abstract: Chondroblastoma of spine is very rare condition. To best of our knowledge, fewer than 30 cases have been reported in the world literature. Almost all of them involved both anterior & posterior component of vertebra. There are only few reports with isolated posterior element involvement. Clinical presentation of paraparesis because of vertebral chondroblastoma is very rare. This case report presents 17 yr old male with chondroblastoma involving posterior thoracic vertebra presenting with quadriparesis which imp… Show more

“…A total of 61 patients with spinal CB were included, including 8 from our institution and 53 from 27 eligible studies in the literature (Supplementary material). 1 , 8 - 11 , 15 - 36 The clinicopathological characteristics of the patients are summarized in Table 1 . Overall, there were no differences in clinicopathological features between the local and literature cohorts, except for absence or presence of spinal canal invasion and chicken-wire calcification ( Table 1 ).…”

“…According to the latest World Health Organization classification, CB is classified as an intermediate tumor that is locally aggressive and rarely metastasizes (< 2%), with a local recurrence rate of up to 38% and a 2% incidence of lung metastases[ 4 ]. Spinal CB has a higher recurrence rate and more aggressive tumor growth compared to long-bone CB[ 6 , 7 ], and Vialle et al [ 8 ] and Giri and Chavan[ 9 ] even stated that the local recurrence rate is 100% when CB involves the long bones. In view of the high invasiveness and high recurrence rate of this disease, it is necessary to understand fully this disease.…”
