Chondrosarcoma is considered as a common primary bone sarcoma. These sarcomas can form large masses without any specific symptoms because there are no barriers in pelvic anatomy to prevent the enlargement of tumors, and can mimic ovarian masses. We present a pelvic chondrosarcoma in a woman aged 37 years who was misdiagnosed as having an ovarian mass due to the limited information obtained from imaging studies. Pelvic chondrosarcoma should be considered in patients who have pelvic masses with solid components. It should be kept in mind that interventions should be performed at centers where there are orthopedic surgeons with experience of this subject.
软骨肉瘤被认为是一种常见的原发性骨肉瘤。这些肉瘤可形成巨大肿块且无任何特异性症状,因为盆腔解剖结构中没有阻碍肿瘤增大的屏障,并且可能类似卵巢肿块。我们报告一例37岁女性的盆腔软骨肉瘤,因其影像学检查所获信息有限而被误诊为卵巢肿块。对于有含实性成分盆腔肿块的患者,应考虑盆腔软骨肉瘤。应牢记,干预措施应在有熟悉该领域的骨科医生的中心进行。
