*Female predilection
*Pathology outlines [http://pathologyoutlines.com/wick/softtissue/chondrosarcomaextraskeletalmyxoidtypemicro2.jpg]
*Most commonly intraosseous but can occur in extraskeletal sites especially the central nervous system (from the meminges)
*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 <ref>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Fanburg-Smith | first1 = JC. | last2 = Auerbach | first2 = A. | last3 = Marwaha | first3 = JS. | last4 = Wang | first4 = Z. | last5 = Rushing | first5 = EJ. | title = Reappraisal of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma: novel morphologic observations of the hyaline cartilage and endochondral ossification and beta-catenin, Sox9, and osteocalcin immunostaining of 22 cases. | journal = Hum Pathol | volume = 41 | issue = 5 | pages = 653-62 | month = May | year = 2010 | doi = 10.1016/j.humpath.2009.11.006 | PMID = 20138330 }}

====Clear cell chondrosarcoma====
Pink and fleshy with foci of calcification.
*Rare variant of chondrosarcoma (1.6%–5.4% of all chondrosarcomas)

*Younger age than conventional chondrosarcoma
*Teens to 40s; more common in males
*Epiphyses of long tubular bones; proximal femur or humerus
*Rarely head and neck <ref>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Mokhtari | first1 = S. | last2 = Mirafsharieh | first2 = A. | title = Clear cell chondrosarcoma of the head and neck. | journal = Head Neck Oncol | volume = 4 | issue =  | pages = 13 | month =  | year = 2012 | doi = 10.1186/1758-3284-4-13 | PMID = 22520362 }}</ref>

==Microscopic==
Microscopic findings

*Clear to intensively acidophilic granular cytoplasm cytoplasm with vacuoles
**Islands of well-differentiated hyaline cartilage
*Central nuclei with occasional prominent nucleoli
***Progressive maturation of cartilage towards the center
*Low mitotic rate

*Areas with osteoclast-type giant cells mixed with small trabeculae of reactive bone
==IHC==
