Background:

Primary skull base chondrosarcoma is a rare malignant cartilaginous tumor.
Understanding its clinicopathological and molecular features is crucial for accurate diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotype, and molecular characteristics of primary skull base chondrosarcoma.
To aid in the differential diagnosis of this rare tumor.

Main Methods:

Retrospective review of nine primary skull base chondrosarcoma cases.
Analysis of clinical, radiological, morphological, immunophenotypic (IHC), and molecular data.

Main Results:

Nine cases (6 male, 3 female; median age 47) with WHO grade I (n=5) and II (n=4).
Tumors showed lobulated growth, mild-moderate atypia, positive S-100, vimentin, SOX-9, D2-40, and negative Brachyury, CK, EMA, CK8/18.
Low Ki-67 index (1-5%) and IDH1 R132C mutation in four cases.

Conclusions:

Skull base chondrosarcoma is a rare malignant cartilaginous tumor with a favorable prognosis.
Characteristic morphology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular detection are vital for differential diagnosis.
