“…Indeed, only one chondromyxoid fibroma reported in the literature has caused facial paralysis and was not localized to the mastoid. 8 Radiographically, the tumors in this series did not demonstrate the classic findings of chondrosarcoma, including bony scalloping, contrast enhancement, or matrix calcification seen commonly on CT imaging. 3 On MRI, there is typically T1 hypointensity, T2 hyperintensity, and postcontrast enhancement.…”

We present a case series of a family with three members having cartilaginous tumors of the mastoid. All patients presented between the ages of 9 to 12 years with acute onset facial nerve paralysis. Histologic analysis of all tumors showed similar features, consistent with atypical cartilaginous tumors/chondrosarcoma, low-grade. Conventional cytogenetic analysis performed on one of the sons' tumor showed no evidence of chromosomal abnormality. High-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization performed on the same patient's blood also showed no unbalanced chromosomal abnormality. This is the first report of family members with this unusual combination of clinical, radiologic, and histologic finding. Laryngoscope, 126:E310-E313, 2016.

“… 8 15 Though not always present, the characteristic features of CMF include lobular appearance, chondromyxoid stroma, and fibrous tissue with multinucleated giant cells. 16 Nielsen et al performed ultrastructural examination on six tumor samples finding populations of cells with features of three different cell types: chondrocytes, myofibroblasts, and a mixture of both chondrocytes and myofibroblasts. 17 It should be noted that if the lesion shows significant atypia or mitotic activity, the diagnosis of CMF should be reconsidered.…”

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is an exceedingly rare tumor that represents less than 1% of all primary bone neoplasms. Occurrence in the facial and cranial bones is extremely rare and frequently misdiagnosed. Case Reports We report two cases of CMF, one in the sphenoclival skull base and the other involving the parietal bone in two young female patients. Excision was performed in both cases. Presenting symptoms, treatment, and follow-up are reported. Methods A retrospective review of the literature on cranial CMF was performed. The location, demographics, presenting symptoms, and treatment of all calvarial and skull base CMF cases published since 1990 are summarized. Discussion In our literature review, we found 67 published cases of cranial CMF. Mean age of all calvarial and skull base CMFs at diagnosis was 38.2 years old. Of the cases affecting the cranium, the sinonasal structures were most commonly involved. To our knowledge we report only the second case of CMF involving the parietal bone published in an English-language journal. Total resection is the best treatment, and should be the goal of surgical intervention. Curettage results in high recurrence rates. Radiotherapy in the setting of subtotal resection or recurrence cannot be definitively recommended and needs further investigation.

“…Intracranial CMF is a rare clinico‐pathological entity and about 34 cases (including this study) have been reported (Table 1). The sites of occurrences for the reported cases are: four cases from occipital bones, 4,6 , 7 eight cases from frontal bones, 5,7–11 five cases from sphenoid bones, 7,12 , 13 one case from petrous‐sphenoid junction, 14 one case from mastoid with extension into occipital bone, 15 three cases from temporal bones, 16–18 one case from nasal bone with involvement of frontal and ethmoid sinuses, 19 three cases from clivus with involvement of frontal and ethmoid sinuses, 20 one case from mastoid and temporal bone, 21 one case from ethmoid sinus, 7 one case from anterior fossa, 22 one case from middle and posterior fossa 23 and two cases from parietal bones 24 (this study). Two other cases were reported simply as involving calvarium 7 and skull base 25 .…”

Chondromyxoid fibroma of the parietal bone

We report the case of an 11-year old girl who presented with an intracranial chondromyxoid fibroma arising from parietal bone. Chondromyxoid fibroma is a benign cartilaginous neoplasm, which can be easily mistaken for chondrosarcoma, especially in small biopsies. It is more common in long bones and is least common in cranial bones. Published work describes about 33 cases occurring in cranial bones with almost equal incidence in the bones of the base of the skull and cranial vault. To our knowledge, this is the second case of chondromyxoid fibroma reported to occur in parietal bone and is the first case reported in an English-language journal. We present this case for its rare anatomical, clinical, radiological and histological presentations.
