Abstract

Chondrosarcoma is a relatively rare neoplasm. Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is an auxiliary method that may be used in diagnosis of the tumor, especially the recurrent metastatic lesions. In this report, we define the cytologic features of recurrent chondrosarcoma located at 6th-12th thoracal vertebrae diagnosed by FNAB. Our aim is to emphasize that FNAB may be an auxiliary method in the diagnosis of recurrent chondrosarcomas.
