Primary Chondrosarcoma of the Breast: A Rare Case Report.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Pure sarcomas are very uncommon tumours of the breast. They represent a diverse and heterogenous group of malignant neoplasms that arise from the mammary stroma. A diagnosis of primary mammary sarcoma can be established only after excluding metaplasic carcinoma and malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes where malignant cartilaginous areas may be present, by extensive sampling for evidence of ductal carcinoma in situ or invasive mammary carcinoma. This case report describes a very rare primary chondrosarcoma of the breast in a 50 year old female diagnosed precisely on fine-needle aspiration cytology and confirmed by histopathological examination after total mastectomy.
