Abstract EN
Since chondrosarcoma is a relatively rare type of malignant bone tumors characterized by its ability to produce a cartilage matrix and aggressive behavior, a consensus clinical management strategy has not been established.
We report a 55-year-old woman who presented with renal metastasis arising from chondrosarcoma of the scapula.
Chondrosarcoma of the left scapula was diagnosed 15 years earlier.
After surgical resection of a local recurrence in the left scapula, she received focal radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
She underwent focal RFA and surgical resection for a total of 21 times for lung metastases.
Because invasion of the renal pelvis was suspected from urine cytology, she underwent laparoscopic nephroureterectomy.
The histopathological findings showed metastatic chondrosarcoma involving the right renal parenchyma.
The patient has remained clinically stable without recurrence for 18 months.
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of metastatic chondrosarcoma of the lung and renal parenchyma with involvement of the renal pelvis in which remission was achieved with multimodal treatment including RFA and surgical resection.
