Abstract:
We describe a case of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma arising from the periosteum of the rib. On chest radiographthe mass showed well-defined radiopacity, and there was rib erosion. On CT, there was marked enhancement withirregular ossification and rib erosion, while a 99mTc-MDP scan revealed dense radionuclide uptake.
