Abstract:
The mesenchymal chondrosarcoma of the orbit is so rare that only a few cases have been reported in Korea and world-wide. We experienced that a patient whose complaints were proptosis and diplopia caused by orbital tumor. After tumor removal, it was histologically diagnosed as mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. So we report a case of mesenchymal chonrosarcoma of the orbit with a review of the literature.
