The authors present a case of primary intracranial extraosseous myxoid chondrosarcoma without any attachment to the cranium or the meninges. The clinical and radiological findings of the primary intraparenchymal tumor are described with a review of the literature concerning cranial and intracranial myxoid chondrosarcoma.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the surgical technique and efficacy of the resection of parapharyngeal space neoplasm via styloid diaphragm approach.
METHODSThirty-three cases underwent the resection of parapharyngeal space tumors via styloid diaphragm approach from Jan 2005 to Jan 2011 were reviewed. Of the cases, 28 were with benign tumors treated by surgery alone, and 5 were malignant tumors treated by surgery plus postoperative radical radiotherapy.
RESULTSThe parapharyngeal neoplasms in all cases were completely resected via styloid diaphragm approach. The postoperative follow-up ranged from 13 months to 7 years (median = 4.6 years). No tumor recurrence was found in 30 cases, but 3 cases experienced tumor recurrence, including 1 chondrosarcoma (3 years after surgery and chemoradiotherapy), 1 chordoma and 1 adenoid cystic carcinoma (5 years after surgery and radiotherapy). Severe postoperative complications were not observed, but 2 cases showed mild mouth askew and fully recovered after 3 months, and 1 case was complicated with hoarseness and cough symptoms that disappeared after heteropathy.
CONCLUSIONResection of parapharyngeal neoplasms via styloid diaphragm approach is an ideal surgical technique, with well-exposed surgical field, less tissue injury, and less postoperative complication.

OBJECTIVETo assess the results and complications of allograft/prosthetic composite arthroplasty for the bone and joint defect after tumor resection.
METHODSAllograft/prosthetic composite arthroplasty included proximal femoral allograft with total hip arthroplasty (12 cases), distal femoral allograft with total knee arthroplasty (10 cases), and proximal tibial allograft with total knee arthroplasty (3 cases). The bone cement was used to fix the prosthesis and allograft-host bone. Before and after operation, 10 patients with osteosarcoma and 4 patients with malignant fibrous histiocytoma received high-dose chemotherapy for 6 cycles.
RESULTSThe mean duration of follow-up was 64 months (36 to 112 months). Three patients died within 37 months. The remaining were alive with tumor-free. There were no dislocation or loose of the prosthesis. Two greater trochanters of the allogenous femur were partially absorbed. Synostosis was found at the allograft-host conjunction of all patients. Using the Enneking functional evaluation system, the mean postoperative score for all patients was 23.4 with a range from 17-27.
CONCLUSIONAllograft/prosthetic composite arthroplasty has the advantages of both techniques and can meet the functional need of patients.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the clinical characteristics and treatments for chondrosarcoma of paranasal sinus and the skull base.
METHODSThe clinical characteristics of chondrosarcoma of paranasal sinus and skull base in 7 patients underwent endoscopic surgeries between 2001 and 2008 were analyzed. Of the patients, 4 men and 3 women. The patients' age ranged from 18 to 47 years, with a median of 31 years.
CLINICAL SYMPTOMSstuffy, nose bleeding, runny, headache, diplopia, eye outreach limited, blurred vision and even blindness. Surgery methods: under nasal endoscopy, after the attachment sites of the tumors to normal tissues were confirmed, the tumors were peeled off along the clear boundary between the tumors and normal tissues, and the potential residual tumor tissues on bones were cleared by a drill.
RESULTSThe patients were followed up postoperatively for 24 to 108 months, with a median of 36 months. Five of 7 patients were no recurrence, 2 were alive with tumor.
CONCLUSIONSChondrosarcoma of paranasal sinus and skull base can be treated by nasal endoscopic surgery, with good clinical outcome.
