title: Parasellar chondroma: a case report.
abstract: A case of a 19-year-old man with a right parasellar chondroma examined with computed tomography (CT) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) scan is reported. The literature about CT and NMR scan findings of intracranial chondroma is reviewed. Typical CT findings are a round, high density mass with calcification, that is only slightly enhanced by contrast medium.
