ABSTRACT
Clear cell chondrosarcoma is a very rare malignant bone tumor that shows a strong predilection for the epiphysis or metaphysis of long bones. Many studies have reported that the proximal end of the femur is the most commonly affected site, followed by the proximal end of the humerus. Histopathologically, tumor cells of this type have centrally located round nucleoli with clear cytoplasm and a distinct cytoplasmic membrane. Generally, clear cell chondrosarcomas is not confused with conventional chondrosarcomas. However, when it involves the diaphysis in long bones, diagnosis can be hindered, as only three reports of this exist in the literature. We report herein an unusual case of clear cell chondrosarcoma of the tibial diaphysis in a 42-year-old male.
