    Author: Saini R, Abd Razak NH, Ab Rahman S, Samsudin AR.
    Journal: J Can Dent Assoc; 2007 Mar; 73(2):175-8. PubMed ID: 17355810.
    Abstract:
    Chondrosarcomas are malignant tumours of cartilaginous origin. They range from a well-differentiated growth resembling a benign cartilage tumour to a high-grade malignancy with aggressive local behaviour and the potential to metastasize. Only 5% to 10% of chondrosarcomas are known to occur in the head and neck region. A case of chondrosarcoma of the anterior region of the mandible is presented, along with a review of the relevant literature.
