We aimed to present the cases operated in our clinic.Methods: Between the years of 2003-2014, nine patients with chondrosarkoma included in this study. Age, gender, complaints, symptoms, radiological findings, operative techniques and postoperative follow-up is analyzed retrospectively.Results: In this study, there were 3 female and 6 male patients with a mean age of 49.67 ±16.53. Chest wall resection was performed to all patients with a 5 cm safe surgical margin. In 8 cases, reconstruction was needed and prosthetic materials and titanium bars were used. There was no operative mortality. Adjuvant chemotherapy was planned and carried out postoperatively by oncology department. In 2 cases reoperated because of recurrence. Survival rate was 52.44± 42.06 months. Mortality during follow-up was 2.Conclusion: Complete resection in chosen cases is important to achieve a long-term survival and successful treatment. Surgical intervention of chondrosarcoma could be performed with an agreeable risk of mortality and morbidity. ER -
