Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (EMC) rarely occurs in the head and neck and is generally managed with primary surgery. To our knowledge, no cases of unresectable EMC of the neck have been reported. We present a case of an unresectable EMC treated with chemotherapy and radiation, and highlight the exceptional early response to therapy.
骨外黏液样软骨肉瘤(EMC)很少发生于头颈部,通常采用一期手术治疗。据我们所知,尚未有颈部不可切除性EMC的病例报道。我们报告一例采用化疗和放疗治疗的不可切除性EMC病例,并强调其对治疗的异常早期反应。
