title: Pseudo-chondrosarcoma: solitary osseous metastases from atypical bronchogenic carcinoma.
abstract: A patient with bronchogenic carcinoma with a solitary metastases to the femur in whom the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic setting suggested that the primary tumor was the bone lesion (chondrosarcoma) and the pulmonary lesion was a solitary metastasis is presented. This case is added to the limited literature indicating that mucin-secreting tumors metastatic to bone may simulate primary bone tumors radiographically.
