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:

Notes:

  • May be described as white clouds in a dark blue sky.

DDX

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)

Molecular

  • t(8;8)(q21.1;q13.3) HEY1-NCOA2.[4]
  • Less commonly t(1;5)(q42;q32) IRF2BP2-CDX1[5]
