We present an extremely rare case of intracranial extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma. A 36-year-old male presented with dizziness persisting for 2 weeks. MRI of the patient showed well-enhanced mass of fourth ventricle. The tumor was totally removed under telovelar approach. Pathology results confirmed an intracranial extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma. Adjuvant radiotherapy was initiated one month after the surgery, and MRI followed 3 months after initial operation and showed no evidence of tumor recurrence.

Intracranial chondrosarcomas are rare malignant lesions. Both skull base and dural-based extraosseous chondrosarcomas have been reported to occur intracranially. Dural-based chondrosarcomas arising from the falx cerebri are rare lesions with only 19 cases reported till date.

Background: Intracranial mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (IMC) is a rare malignant tumor in pediatric population. IMC can present as extra- or intra-axial lesion in pediatric patients, though the former is commoner causing raised intracranial pressure (ICP). Radiological diagnosis is a challenge in these cases, as is it difficult to differentiate these from other extra-axial neoplasms due to the wide differential diagnosis in pediatric population.

This study reports a 12-year-old male was referred to our institute with a mass in the right ear. The mass was rapidly growing thus needing an immediate surgical attention. MRI revealed an exophytic, hyper vascular mass extending to the right jugular fossa and, the middle ear, and to the right acoustic meatus, suggestive of a right glomus jugulare tumor.

Background: Intracranial extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (EMCS) is a rare neoplasm and often misdiagnosed before histopathological examination due to its rarity. There were few reports previously on the radiological features of intracranial EMCS. We described a 20-year-old male patient with intracranial EMCS focusing on the imaging characteristics.

Intracranial extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcomas (IEMCs) are malignant aggressive neoplasms. IEMCs originate from the meninges or parenchyma. In the current study, we aimed to figure out the importance of gross total resection (GTR) and adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) by evaluating all reported IEMCs through the literature that included our two patients.
