Abstract

Chondrosarcoma is a malignancy rarely encountered in the head and neck. The reported prevalence of chondrosarcoma involving the head and neck region has a range of 1–12%. In our case report, we demonstrate a chondrosarcoma of the left lower neck region by means of magnetic resonance imaging. We were not able to show its exact origin and considered the possibility of a rare extraosseous origin. It presented as a slowly growing, painless mass and showed characteristic calcification and high signal intensity on long TR, long TE sequences. It caused left jugular vein compression and left subclavian artery kinking due to mass effect. Histopathologic examination revealed a low-grade mesenchymal myxoid chondrosarcoma. In this study, we review the clinical presentation, imaging features, management, and treatment procedures of these rare tumors.

颈部软骨肉瘤的磁共振成像1例
软骨肉瘤是一种很少发生在头颈部的恶性肿瘤。据报道,软骨肉瘤累及头颈部的发病率为1-12%。在我们的病例报告中,我们通过磁共振成像证明了左下颈部区域的软骨肉瘤。我们无法确定它的确切起源,并考虑了罕见的骨外起源的可能性。表现为生长缓慢、无痛性肿块,呈特征性钙化,长TR、长TE序列呈高信号。肿块效应导致左颈静脉受压,左锁骨下动脉扭结。组织病理学检查显示为低度间充质粘液样软骨肉瘤。在本研究中,我们回顾这些罕见肿瘤的临床表现、影像特征、管理和治疗方法。
