title: Chondrosarcoma of the pubis imitating bladder tumor radiologically: a case report.
abstract: Chondrosarcoma is a rare tumor that more frequently involves the pelvic bones, the femur, and the humerus. The rareness of the tumor makes the diagnosis difficult. Malignant cartilage tumors typically have an unstable radiographic appearance. In this report we aimed to point out the difficulties of the radiological differentiation of the pelvic chondrosarcoma and bladder tumor.
