“…The anterior portion of the maxilla, the sino-nasal region and the mandible are the most commonly affected locations 19,22,25,26 . These tumours may present with a wide range of clinical alterations, but a painless swelling is the most common complaint found in the series reviewed 14,20-22 (Table 1).…”

“…The radiographic appearance of CHS of the jaws may be varied, but it usually exhibits features consistent with malignancy, primarily presenting osteolytic lesions with poorly defined borders 8,19 . The ill-defined radiolucent areas often contain scattered radiopaque foci corresponding to calcification of the neoplastic cartilaginous tissue 9,13 .…”

“…Taking into account the overall biological behaviour of head and neck CHS, the most effective treatment modality for this neoplasia is aggressive surgery with wide en-bloc resection, ensuring that an adequate histologically clear margin is obtained, since residual disease is known to be an important cause of recurrence 9,19,20 . Irradiation and chemotherapy, although variably used in cases of CHS, do 208…”

“…Les autres types sont plus rares, agressifs et de mauvais pronostic [6]. Ovmiston et al [11] distinguent trois grades de gravité croissante en fonction du degré de différentiation tumorale. Les chondrosarcomes très bien différenciés (grade I) posent des problèmes de diagnostic diffé-rentiel avec les chondromes, les hamartomes et les ostéosarcomes chondrogéniques [6].…”

Les chondrosarcomes sont des tumeurs cartilagineuses malignes à localisation maxillaire rare. Ils sont caractérisés par une évolution généralement lente dans le temps et par une tendance élevée aux récidives locorégionales après traitement chirurgical. Leur pronostic médiocre dépend de leur degré de différenciation et de la qualité de résection. Les auteurs rapportent un cas clinique de chondrosarcome mandibulaire et précisent les particularités épidémio-logiques, diagnostiques, thérapeutiques et évolutives de ces tumeurs. Mots clés Chondrosarcome · Mandibule · Tumeur cartilagineuseAbstract Chondrosarcoma is a malignant cartilaginous tumor rarely found in the jaw bone. Tumor progression is slow with strong propensity to recurrence after surgical removal. The prognosis is poor and depends on the degree of differentiation and the quality of resection. We report a case of mandibular chondrosarcoma and discuss the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of these tumors.

“…In total, 5-12% of chondrosarcomas occur in the head and neck region, accounting for 5-10% of all bone neoplasms occurring in this location; the larynx and maxillo-nasal region are the most common sites for chondrosarcomas to originate (3). Chondrosarcomas located in the mandible region are rare and mostly occur in the mandibular symphyseal region (4)(5)(6). The majority of chondrosarcomas exhibit an indolent growth pattern, and more aggressive, high-grade tumors have been previously observed (7).…”

Chondrosarcoma in the mental foramen region of the mandible: A case report

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Abstract. Chondrosarcoma is a malignant tumor that is characterized by the formation of cartilage by tumor cells. The tumor is commonly observed in regions where cartilage is already present. In total, 5-12% of chondrosarcomas occur in the head and neck region. However, the occurrence of chondrosarcoma in the mental foramen region is extremely rare. The aim of the present study was to report a case of chondrosarcoma in the mental foramen region. An 18-year-old man presented with a 3-month history of a painless mass over the labial aspect of the right mandible, which was associated with the patient feeling unwell and the loosening of the lower anterior teeth. The patient underwent segmental mandibulectomy and the final pathological diagnosis was chondrosarcoma. Following mandibulectomy, the patient continued to receive routine follow-up. In addition, the present study reviewed the literature concerning chondrosarcomas in the head and neck region.
