title: Oral presentation of secondary chondrosarcoma arising in osteochondroma of the nasal septum.
abstract: A case is described in which a midline palatal swelling, on incisional biopsy, showed an ossifying, chondroid lesion with the histologic features of a low-grade chondrosarcoma. Complete excision revealed that the tumour had originated in a benign osteochondroma of the nasal septum.
