Dedifferentiated CS consists of a high-grade noncartilaginous sarcoma adjacent to a preexisting low-grade CS, among which the peripheral type is extremely rare. Because the bimorphic imaging findings reflected the dedifferentiated area and the CS area, they were considered useful for diagnosis. In addition, the dedifferentiated area was localized to the tumor's edge, suggesting that the dedifferentiation originated from the cartilage cap.
