Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is a rare type of chondrosarcoma that is found in the soft tissue.
General
- Rare variant of chondrosarcoma.
- 2–10% of primary chondrosarcomas.
- Adolescents and young adults.
- Female predilection.
- Most commonly intraosseous but can occur in extraskeletal sites especially the central nervous system (from the meninges).
- The mesenchymal in the name refers to the ability to arise in soft tissues.[1]
- Conceptualized as originating from a pleuripotential mesenchymal cell with foci recapitulating enchondral ossification.
- The small cells appear to be an undifferentiated cartilage stem cell which “differentiate” into benign cartilage.[2]
Gross
Pink and fleshy with foci of calcification.
Microscopic
Features:
- Malignant tumour with a characteristic biphasic pattern.
- Cellular poorly differentiated small round blue cells.
- Islands of well-differentiated hyaline cartilage.
- Progressive maturation of cartilage towards the center.
- Central calcification or bone formation.
- Can have a hemangiopericytomatous vascular pattern.
Notes:
- May be described as white clouds in a dark blue sky.
DDX
- Hemangiopericytoma - no cartilage.
- Lymphoma - Sox9 negative, CD45 positive.
- Metaplastic glioblastoma - usually older adults - GFAP positive.
- Chondrosarcoma (NOS) - usually older adults - hyaline cartilage is malignant.
- Small cell osteosarcoma - Sox10 negative, no cartilage.
- Ewing sarcoma - both are CD99 positive but ES is Sox9 negative, no cartilage.
- Monophasic synovial sarcoma - also can have the hemangiopericytomatous vasculature.
Note:
- Depends a bit on where the tumour is located and how much cartilage is readily visible.

IHC
- SOX9 (positive in small cells and chondrocytes).[3]
- S100 (positive in chondrocytes not in small cells).
- Osteocalcin (negative in small cells).
- CD99 - (positive in small cells)
