Abstract

Primary extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (EMC) of the mediastinum is an extremely rare disease. To date, only seven cases have been reported in the literature 1-4 since it was first reported by Chetty in 1990.1 We experienced a case of primary mediastinal EMC presenting as an anterior mediastinal mass, a previously unreported site. Here, we describe the characteristic features of the lesion with a review of the literature to emphasize that EMC should be considered in the differential diagnosis of mediastinal tumors.
