Abstract
A case of intraspinal, intrathoracic, and extrathoracic chondrosarcoma is described, and the literature is critically examined. Despite apparently total extirpation by the neurosurgeons and thoracic sugeons of a tumour that was identified histologically as a chondroma, there was an early recurrence noted to be obviously malignant at the second operation. Diagnosis and therapy are discussed briefly.
