ABSTRACT
Chondrosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor arising in bony or cartilagenous system. Chondrosarcoma of the hyoid bone is extremely rare, with approximately 10 cases having been reported in the english literature. Chondrosarcoma is a slow-growing, locally aggressive tumor which frequently recurs. Wide surgical excision is generally regarded as the treatment of choice for chondrosarcoma. The prognosis is best judged by three factors:tumor site, tumor grade and tumor resectability. Authors experienced a case of chondrosarcoma that originated from the greater cornu of the hyoid bone. The patient underwent wide excision of the tumor with total hyoidectomy and postoperative radiotherapy was performed.
