title: Case report 696: Chondroblastoma of the right acetabulum and superior pubic ramus.
abstract: A case of chondroblastoma involving the right acetabulum and superior pubic ramus in a 60-year-old man has been presented. Tissue was obtained by open biopsy. The clinical and radiographic characteristics of chondroblastoma in general, and this tumor in particular, were discussed. The histopathology and differential diagnosis were also considered. The relatively uncommon site of the tumor and its occurrence in an older patient made the radiographic diagnosis difficult, and other possibilities were discussed.
