ABSTRACT
Huge chondrosarcoma is a rare form of primary malignant tumor of the chest wall. We operated on a 60 year old female patient who had a huge anterior chest wall mass with local invasion into the pericardium and satellite tumors on the visceral pericardium of the heart. En-bloc resection of the huge tumor including both upper 3 ribs, both clavicles, manubrium of the sternum, pleura, and pericarium, was followed by complex chest wall reconstruction using a Gore-tex soft tissue patch and latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous free flap.
