چکیده

The authors report an unusual location of a benign chondroma of the petro-sphenoidal synchondrosis extending into the cavernous sinus. Computerized tomography and magnetic resonance image features were characteristic of chondroid tumor. However, pathologic verification is mandatory in order to distinguish chondroma from chondroblastoma or chondroid chordoma.

A Case Report of Multiple Cavernous Hemangiomas with Fluid-Fluid Levels: A Focus on the Radiologic Features of Dynamic MRI with Subtraction

tablished. The diagnostic features on contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) include peripheral globular and gradual centripetal enhancement. In most cases, hemangiomas do not require a pathological examination. However, some hemangiomas show atypical radiologic features, such as poor gradual enhancement on sclerosing or hyalinized hemangioma and a fluid-...

Intracavernous chondrosarcoma associated with Ollier's disease.

Multiple enchondromatosis (Oilier's disease)' is a rare, non-hereditary condition of unknown aetiology in which cartilaginous masses are found in bones. We report a patient with Oilier's disease who presented with a parasellar syndrome due to a chondrosarcoma in the cavernous sinus. The association of Ollier's disease and intracranial cartilaginous tumours (chondrosarcoma or chondroma) is recog...

Soft tissue chondroma of Hoffa's fat pad.

We report mutimodal imaging findings of an extraskeletal chondroma of the Hoffa's fat pad. Plain radiographic or CT scan studies demonstrate a large soft tissue mass with calcifications and central ossification, characteristic features of these tumors. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging shows heterogeneous signal due to polymorphic histopathological appearance. Correlation between MR imaging and p...
