Description
Summary:Registro de um caso de condrossarcoma intracraniano primário, sendo discutidos aspectos clínicos, histológicos, radiológicos e terapêuticos e dando-se ênfase a aspectos neurorradiológicos que permitem o diagnóstico diferencial com outros tumores intracranianos, em particular, os cordomas e meningiomas. A case of intracranial chondrosarcoma is reported. Its diagnosis can be suspected through the findings of a paraselar avascular tumor, sometimes with inespecific calcifications, visualized as a isodense and contrast-enhancing mass by computed tomography, as observed in the case. Differential diagnosis may be difficult with chondromas and meningiomas. Surgical ressection is the treatment of choice, with good results.
