This paper discusses the case of a 57-year-old man with an incidental finding of a radiologically non-aggressive chondroid lesion and concomitant osteonecrosis in the left distal femur. The final resected specimen showed a grade-2 chondrosarcoma. This case illustrates that long-term follow-up is necessary for non-aggressive chondroid lesions. If surgical management is considered, resection with an adequate margin is superior to intralesional curettage.
