AI Article Synopsis
- The iliac vein is a rare location for metastasis in extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (ESMC), which usually results in a poor prognosis.
- A case is presented involving a 50-year-old patient whose retroperitoneal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma initially spread to the iliac bone before metastasizing to the iliac vein.
- The study analyzes the key features of ESMC and discusses other documented cases due to the uncommon nature of these tumors.
Article Abstract
The iliac vein is an extremely rare site of metastasis for extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (ESMC). Involvement of the veins usually leads to an extremely dismal prognosis. Here, we report a 50-year-old patient with retroperitoneal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma and initial metastasis to the iliac bone, which further progressed to involve the iliac vein. In this study, we reviewed the major characteristics of ESMC and the previously reported cases, considering the rarity of these tumors.
