Abstract
Primary pelvic tumors are relatively rare, representing no more than 5% of primary bone tumors. We presented a case of a chondrosarcoma of the superior pubic ramus initially managed as an inguinal hernia and then operated under oncological principles. Special attention is attributed to the importance for the correct diagnosis and surgical treatment given the low efficacy of adjuvant treatments for this type of neoplasia.

Devemos relembrar a importância do diagnóstico diferencial com sarcomas em lesões da região pélvica com o objetivo de: (a) evitar manipulações mal conduzidas que possam ocasionar a disseminação local de células neoplásicas e piora das taxas de recidiva local e sobrevida; e (b) tentar realizar diagnósticos precoces que permitam o tratamento cirúrgico adequado de maneira conservadora
Summary
Os tumores primários da bacia são relativamente raros, representando cerca de 5 % dos tumores ósseos primários[1 ]. Considerando apenas os condrossarcomas, 25% dos casos estão localizados na bacia[2 ]. Tendo em vista a sua incidência, relatamos um caso para enfatizar a importância do correto diagnóstico destes tumores
