Abstract
Chondrosarcomas are uncommon tumors. Approximately 5-10% are located in the head and neck. Nasal septal chondrosarcoma is exceedingly rare, with an extensive review of the world literature revealing only 50 reported cases. Most occur in middle-aged man. Surgical resection is the definitive treatment of choice. Radiation and chemotherapy are reserved for residual or recurrent diseases and palliation. We present a case of nasal septal chondrosarcoma treated with craniofacial resection and postoperative radiation therapy.
Key Words: Chondrosarcoma, Nasal septum
