Abstract
Chondrosarcomas are the malignant cartilaginous neoplasms rarely seen in the head and neck region. The chondrosarcomas may show an aggressive course and are mostly located in relation with anterior maxilla and base of the skull. Chondrosarcomas of the body of mandible are infrequent. We report a case of low-grade chondrosarcoma of body of mandible, which was treated with a simple excision without neck dissection.
