Abstract:
Eight cases of chondrosarcoma of the thoracic wall were treated during a 13-year period. The radicality of tumor resection was positively correlated with patient survival. Wide primary resection without preceding biopsy is advocated for thoracic lesions suspected from computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging to be chondrosarcoma.
