Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is a rare high-grade variant of chondrosarcoma distinguished by its aggressive nature. Molecular studies aid in establishing the diagnosis. We present a case report of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma in the maxilla of a 39-year-old male patient and a literature review of 42 gnathic cases of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma with a discussion of clinical, imaging, microscopic, immunohistochemical, and molecular features.

Chondrosarcoma (CS), the second most common malignant bone tumor after osteosarcoma, accounts for 20-30% of all malignant bone tumors. It mainly affects adults, middle-aged, and elderly people. The CS family includes various entities displaying peculiar biological, genetic, and epigenetic characteristics and clinical behaviors.

Objectives: The effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy on head and neck chondrosarcoma (HNCS) has not been unanimously determined because of the rarity of HNCS. Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) model is considered to be a good preclinical model for new drug development and personalized drug screening. We performed this study to investigate the preclinical application and value of PDX model in drug screening for HNCS.

The cell line Sarcoma 180, which is also called S-180 (or S180), was established about 110 years ago from a murine axillary sarcoma. It has been applied in >5000 studies but was never genetically characterized in detail; this study fills that gap. The cell line Sarcoma 180 was analyzed for its chromosomal constitution using molecular cytogenetic approaches, specifically murine multicolor banding (mcb).

Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) is a subtype of LPS characterized by two distinct levels of differentiation and morphological structures, comprising areas of well-differentiated LPS and dedifferentiated, non-lipogenic, highly malignant components. DDLPS most frequently occurs in the retroperitoneum and the soft tissues of the pelvis and limbs, and is rare in the head and neck region, accounting for only 1% of head and neck sarcomas. The present study describes the case of a 72-year-old male with a 30-year history of left upper limb numbness and heaviness.
