Abstract:
Chondrosarcoma is a primary malignant bone tumor. The location in the vertebral bodies is rare. Its diagnosis is difficult and it is confirmed by histopathology. We report two cases of cervical chondrosarcoma in two men aged respectively 70 and 40 years. Symptomatology was cervicobrachial neuralgia and motor deficit. Both patients were operated and the treatment completed by radiotherapy.

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
