Abstract
Cartilaginous lesions of the skeleton are very unusual. It is extremely important to correlate the roentgenographic features, the clinical features, and the histological features to arrive at a definite diagnosis. Most cartilaginous lesions are benign or of low-grade malignancy. However, there are some subtypes of chondrosarcoma that behave in a highly aggressive fashion.
