Chondrosarcoma
MONDO:0008977A malignant cartilaginous matrix-producing mesenchymal neoplasm arising from the bone and soft tissue. It usually affects middle-aged to elderly adults. The pelvic bones, ribs, shoulder girdle, and long bones are the most common sites of involvement. Most chondrosarcomas arise de novo, but some may develop in a preexisting benign cartilaginous lesion.
Also known as: chondrosarcoma, chondrosarcoma (disease), chondrosarcoma, malignant, chondrosarcoma, somatic mutation, chondrosarcoma of bone, primary chondrosarcoma of the bone
