“…The hyoid chondrosarcoma in the literature is mainly grade 1, with only 4 cases of grade 2 chondrosarcoma [6]. Interestingly in our case, the specimen from the first operation of the patient was reported as grade 1 chondrosarcoma and grade 2 was reported after the last operation.…”

“…Common areas for chondrosarcoma in the head and neck are skull base, nasal cavity, maxillary bone, mandible, and larynx. Hyoid chondrosarcomas are extremely rare tumors, and there are about 23 cases reported previously in the literature [6]. Hyoid chondrosarcomas may also be seen as painless, asymptomatic, and palpable masses, including symptoms related to respiration and symptoms such as voice anxiety and dysphagia.…”

We describe a case of a 31-year-old woman with a chondrosarcoma of the hyoid bone. The patient presented with a mass in the left submandibular region. Fine-needle aspiration cytology suggested chondroma, but further imaging investigation with CT revealed an exophytic tumor originating from the body of the hyoid bone. Histopathology of the surgical specimen confirmed the diagnosis of a intermediate-grade chondrosarcoma. Chondrosarcomas account for 11% of all bone cancers. Primary sites of the head and the neck include the nasal cavity, the skull base, the maxilla, the mandible. Chondrosarcomas of the hyoid bone are very rare, with only 23 cases previously reported in the literature.

“…[5] Of all LCs, 10% occur in the head and neck region, most commonly in the cricoid cartilage. [6] As is true of other head and neck cancers, the etiopathogenesis has not been fully understood yet, but may involve congenital cartilage involution defects, chronic inflammation, and/or abnormalities of cartilage calcification. [7] The rarity of the cancer and the absence of long-term follow-up make it difficult to elucidate the etiopathogenesis.…”

A chondrosarcoma is a malignant tumor originating from cartilage and may occur in any part of the body. It occurs most commonly in the posterior lamina of the cricoid cartilage, followed by the thyroid cartilage, arytenoid cartilage, vocal cords, and epiglottis. In the literature, 25 cases of tracheal chondrosarcoma were reported between 1964 and 2017, but only two cases of cricoid cartilage chondrosarcoma. Currently, no consensus on chondrosarcoma treatment has been established yet, due to the rarity of the condition, and no therapeutic protocol has been shown to be clearly superior to others. Herein, we present the third case of a cricoid chondrosarcoma in the literature. We used a surgical procedure different from those employed earlier; we employed an extralaryngeal, extraesophageal approach. We describe the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up results in the light of current literature.

“…A recent study has shown that despite various surgical approaches, there was no difference in the 5‐years survival rate . For CS affecting the hyoid bone, a rare tumour site with only 20 cases reported in the English literature, complete surgical removal can be effective …”

Head and neck hard tissue sarcomas form a rare group of mesenchymal-derived tumours that comprise less than 1% of all head and neck neoplasms. Hard tissue sarcomas account for 20% of head and neck sarcomas and they form a heterogeneous group with a diverse origin. Unlike head and neck soft-tissue sarcomas, they have lower recurrence and mortality rates. In this study, we review the current management of head and neck hard tissue sarcomas.
