Abstract
We treated a patient with large multiple chondrosarcomas derived from multiple cartilaginous exostoses, One sarcoma originated in the left p ubic bone and the other sarcoma in the posterior aspect of the greater trochanter of the left femur. Thirty months after hindquarter amputat ion, the patient is alive without relapse. This is the first report of a patient with synchronous multiple malignant transformation of multi ple cartilaginous exostoses.
