González, Daniel - Vega, Alvaro - Torres, Marcos - di Leoni, Francisco

Resumen:

The chondrosarcoma is the most frequent malignanttumor of sternum, and incidence on manubriumis low.There was one case of this particular topographyin a 56-years- old female patient in the FloridaHospital, with pain and tumor clinical presentation.A thoracic CAT scan showed tumoration of themanubrium sternum with bone destruction and thisdiagnosis was confirmed through biopsy and immunohistochemicaltechniques wich served to establishit as a poorly differentiated chondrosarcoma.Tumor resection was made with sufficient margin,and it was possible to reconstruct the parietalgap with polipropylene mesh.Survival of disease was 23 months.
