Abstract EN
Chondrosarcoma, the second most common primary malignancy of the bone, is malignant cartilage forming tumour that very rarely involves the axial skeleton.
It may arise as a primary bone tumour or as a secondary lesion from a preexisting benign cartilaginous neoplasm such as osteochondroma or enchondroma.
A rare case of a massive secondary lumbar spine chondrosarcoma is presented.
Management consisted of an initial posterior spinal stabilization and fusion and then a curative radical en bloc tumour resection.
A review of the literature is also presented.
