[Temporal bone chondroblastoma. A clinical case and literature review].
We report a clinical case of a 31 year old male with a left temporal painful mass of six months evolution. After radiologic diagnosis, intraoperatory biopsy and surgical removal, the anatomopathological result confirmed the histology of chondroblatoma, with a satisfactory postoperative evolution. The chondroblastoma is a benign bone tumor typically located in the epiphysis of long bones and the temporal bone is an excepcional location as we have verified through a literature review.
