case_images: Chest X-ray PA view showing a well-defined oval shaped lesion with coarse chondroid calcification and non-visualization of posterior aspect of the right seventh, eighth, and ninth vertebra with widening of the right seventh and eighth intercoastal spaces.

case_images: Plain radiograph of the dorsolumbar spine revealed a heterogeneous opacity in the right lung field extending from D7 to D9 (Fig. 1).
case_images: Computed tomography scan showing a well-defined heterogeneous enhancing lesion with ring and arc calcification within in the right paravertebral region with destruction of the involved ribs and invasion into the adjacent muscles and spinal canal.

case_images: MRI scans were done to characterize the mass which showed destruction of the rib and vertebra with internal calcifications suggestive of chondrosarcoma (Fig. 2, 3, 4). Mass arising from the rib appeared to encroach the spinal canal damaging the pedicle and lamina of vertebra leading to extradural compression of cord.
case_images: Magnetic resonance imaging shows an oval shaped heterogeneous enhancing lesion with showing signal intensity alterations (low to intermediate on T1W and high on T2W) are noted in the right paravertebral region with destruction of the involved ribs and invasion into the adjacent muscles and extension into the spinal canal.

case_images: MRI scans were done to characterize the mass which showed destruction of the rib and vertebra with internal calcifications suggestive of chondrosarcoma (Fig. 2, 3, 4). Mass arising from the rib appeared to encroach the spinal canal damaging the pedicle and lamina of vertebra leading to extradural compression of cord.
case_images: Transverse images on magnetic resonance imaging scan shows invasion of the spinal canal.
