  • Title: Clear cell chondrosarcoma.
    Author: Kumar R, David R, Cierney G.
    Journal: Radiology; 1985 Jan; 154(1):45-8. PubMed ID: 3964950.
    Abstract:
    The clinical, radiologic, and histopathologic features of three cases of clear cell chondrosarcoma are described. On radiographs, this rather benign-appearing tumor resembles a chondroblastoma when it occurs at the end of a long bone, and may occasionally show a calcified matrix. However, it has distinctive tumor cells with a centrally placed vesicular nucleus surrounded by clear cytoplasm. The lesion has a low-grade malignancy and is amenable to en bloc surgical resection, which results in a much better prognosis than that of conventional chondrosarcoma.
