PubMed ID: 3627860. Abstract: The authors report the case of a 9-year-old child which suffered from a chondroblastoma of the cervical spine. He had clinical signs of superior mediastinum compression with inflammation of the respiratory upper air-way. Surgery was performed. Diagnosis was established by the pathologist. The recurrence one year later was treated again by surgery and also by radiotherapy. Another recurrence four years later was fatal. The difficulties of the diagnosis and the appearance of recurrences in some cases of chondroblastoma are reviewed in the literature.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
