ABSTRACT
The vast majority of intracranial chondromas are located in the base of the cranium. Their presentationas an intracerebral neoplasm is considered to be extremely rare. A previously healthy 45-year-old manexperienced recurrent seizure attacks over a period of 6 months. Imaging studies of the brain revealedan ovoid and calcified mass which involve the cortex in the left frontal lobe. Intraoperatively, the masshad no adhesion to the dura and arachnoid membrane. The tumor was completely removed and thefinal diagnosis was intracerebral chondroma. The patient remained free of disease over the period of18-years follow-up. This communication adds an unusual case to the literature on the chondroma thatexpressed in the form of an intra-axial space-occupying lesion in the frontal lobe.
