Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma of the Mandible: A Rare Entity

Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 5

Abstract

Mesenchymal chondrosarcomas are rare malignant connective tissue neoplasms that can develop from the both soft and hard tissues. Localization in the jaws are rare and even more in the mandible. They exhibit characteristic biphasic histopathological pattern but misleading clinical and radiographic findings resembling other jaw tumors. Owing to the aggressive nature of the tumor as well as its metastatic and recurrence potential, the prognosis is poor. We report a rare case of Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma on the left mandibular body in a 54-year-old female patient.
