Abstract

The clinical and pathologic findings in two cases of pure chondrosarcoma of the breast are presented. As with other sarcomas, both tumors were large (5.5 and 25 cm in greatest diameter), did not invade the skin or axillary lymph nodes, and occurred in women more than 40 years old. Infiltrating margins, cellular atypism, and high mitotic rates adversely affected the prognosis.
