Chondrosarcoma is a rare malignancy composed of transformed cells of cartilage. This cancer is characterized by slow growth. Almost 75% of intracranial chondrosarcomas are observed on the skull base and grow from bone synchondrosis. Other rarer localizations of tumor are cerebral falx, tentorium cerebelli, vascular plexuses of the ventricles, fourth ventricle, convexital surface of the brain, etc. In this manuscript, we report treatment of patient with falcine chondrosarcoma.
