Abstract

Intracranial chondroma is extremely rare. The treatment of choice is total tumor excision when resectable. A 30-year-old female patient presented with a giant intracranial chondroma that had enlarged for 18 years. In this case, we totally removed the tumor and reconstructed the meninges, cranium, and left ear using fascia lata, a combination of titan mesh and cement, and the posterior auricular artery axial flap, respectively. The aesthetic outcome was acceptable. No recurrence was identified after 7 months of follow-up. The patient was satisfied with the outcome. The lack of access to high-tech tools, such as 3-dimensional simulation, makes preoperative planning more difficult. Total tumor removal is currently the treatment of choice when the mass is resectable. It is a safe surgery, and with proper reconstruction procedures, an acceptable appearance can be achieved. Further multicenter studies with a greater sample size are needed to make a systematic treatment approach for intracranial chondroma.

巨大颅内软骨瘤。

颅内软骨瘤极为罕见。治疗的选择是肿瘤全切除时，可切除。一个30岁的女性患者提出了一个巨大的颅内软骨瘤，已经扩大了18年。在这个病例中，我们完全切除了肿瘤，并分别使用阔筋膜、泰坦网和水泥结合、耳后动脉轴状皮瓣重建脑膜、头盖骨和左耳。美学效果是可以接受的。随访7个月无复发。病人对结果很满意。缺乏高科技工具，如三维模拟，使得术前计划更加困难。当肿瘤可切除时，全肿瘤切除是目前的治疗选择。这是一种安全的手术，通过适当的重建程序，可以获得可接受的外观。需要进一步的多中心研究和更大的样本量来制定颅内软骨瘤的系统治疗方法。
