Abstract
Mesenchymal chondrosarcomas (MSCs) are a rare form of chondrosarcoma w hich usually arise in bone. Extraskeletal chondrosarcomas constitute a minority (14-25%) of MSCs. We describe the imaging features of an ext raskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma that arose from the rectus abdom inus muscle.
