    Author: Jindal T, Chaudhary R, Sharma N, Meena M, Dutta R, Kumar A.
    Journal: Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2011 Feb; 59(2):145-7. PubMed ID: 21308446.
    Abstract:
    Chondrosarcomas are uncommon tumors of the mediastinum. Cases reported in the literature are chondrosarcomas originating from osteocartilaginous structures; primary chondrosarcomas that have no anatomical relation with cartilaginous structures are rare. They present with myriad symptoms depending on compression of the adjacent structures; but Horner's syndrome, as a symptom, has not been described before. We report a rare case of a large primary mediastinal chondrosarcoma that presented with Horner's syndrome.
