“…A chondroma usually arises in the tubular bones of the four extremities, but it is extremely rare for this tumor to occur in soft tissue [1][2][3][4]. Soft tissue chondroma is a soft tissue mass containing histologically normal cartilage, usually found on the hands and feet [3,4].…”

Soft tissue chondroma of the palate is a rare lesion. We report a rare case of soft tissue chondroma of the hard palate with a review of the literature. A 59-year-old man was referred to our department because of a symptomatic mass on the median anterior margin of the hard palate of 4 year's duration.The lesion was approximately 15×10×8 mm in size and pedunculated. The lesion was excised under local anesthesia, and the pathological diagnosis was soft tissue chondroma. The histopathological findings suggested that the heterotopic formation of cartilage was caused by the metaplastic change of mesenchymal cells into chondrocytes. Postoperative wound healing has been uneventful, with no sign of recurrence during 2 years after surgery.

“…Choristoma of the nervous system is characterized by the occurrence of residual dysplastic tissues outside the nervous system in multiple systems and organs, including the head, eyes, tongue, limbs, esophagus, stomach and hepatic arterial trunk (2). Choristomas grow slowly and are usually asymptomatic, with dysfunctions only occurring once the size of the tumor increases.…”

Striated muscle-derived intraspinal choristoma: A case report

Abstract. Choristoma is a mass of tissue that is histologically normal for the organ or part of the body from which it originates, but is located at an abnormal site. Choristoma of the nervous system involves the occurrence of residual dysplastic tissues outside the nervous system and exhibits a low incidence. Thus far, there has been no prior report of intraspinal choristoma originating from the striated muscle. The patient in the present case was a young man who was admitted to the hospital wing to intermittent lumbago. A lumbar magnetic resonance imaging examination revealed a cystic-solid lesion in the spinal canal at the S1 level. Preoperatively, the lesion was suspected to be a teratoma and was therefore completely removed. The postoperative pathological report suggested that the mass was an intraspinal choristoma, a benign lesion associated with a good prognosis, which had originated from striated muscle. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent progression of nerve dysfunction. The patient recovered well postoperatively and the symptoms of lower back pain disappeared. Although intraspinal choristomas are rare, when a lesion in the spinal canal is diagnosed, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis tumors.
