A chondrosarcoma is a rare bone tumour derived from cartilage-producing malignant mesenchymal cells. A 25- year-old male patient was operated upon to treat a chondrosarcoma arising in the left 2nd and 6th ribs. The tumour underwent en bloc wide resection in collaboration with a plastic surgeon for reconstruction of the resected area. Costal chondrasarcoma is very rare but chondrosarcoma arising from two ribs at the same time has not been reported before in the literature.

Background: Chondrosarcomas of the larynx, relatively rare tumors with low grade pathology in approximately 95% of cases, can most often be managed with conservation laryngeal procedures. Dedifferentiated chondrosarcomas are much more rare and aggressive requiring more aggressive surgical extirpation.
Methods: A patient underwent three debulking procedures for a laryngeal chondrosarcoma Grade I/II histologically over a 2.

Primary bone cancers, also called bone sarcomas, can arise anywhere in the body. Less than 1% of cancers are identified as primary bone cancers annually, and they are correlated with high rates of morbidity and death. Twenty to twenty-seven percent of primary malignant osseous neoplasms are chondrosarcomas, the rarest subtype of bone sarcomas.

Article Synopsis
- Osteochondroma is the most prevalent benign bone tumor that can cause pain and restricted movement, especially in children, and this report examines a specific case involving an 8-year-old boy with an intra-articular osteochondroma in his elbow.
- The boy experienced persistent pain and limited motion in his elbow, leading to surgical intervention where a mass was successfully excised, and pathology confirmed the diagnosis.
- The report emphasizes the necessity of surgical removal and histopathological examination to correctly diagnose osteochondroma and differentiate it from other potential intra-articular conditions.
