e23500 Background: Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma (DCS) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. The purpose of this investigation was to assess the clinicopathological features and outcomes of DCS patients treated at a single institution. Methods: This study was a retrospective review over a consecutive twenty-year period. Data including treatment details and outcomes were recorded. Results: A total of 16 cases from 2000 to 2018 were reviewed. The median age was 62 years (IQR, 52-69 years) and the majority of DCS arose in the femur (50%, n = 8) and pelvis (25%, n = 4). Fourteen (88%) cases received limb salvage/wide margin resection (n = 13) or intralesional surgery (n = 1). For all DCS, the median estimated overall survival (OS) was 46 months (95% CI, 1-90 months) with both a five and ten-year survival probability of 32%. On Kaplan-Meier analysis there was no difference between operative versus nonoperative management (p = 0.747), surgery alone versus surgery/chemotherapy (p = 0.265), nor surgery alone versus surgery/chemotherapy/radiation (p = 0.698). Conclusions: Our findings confirm the poor prognosis of DCS patients, though with a five-year estimate of 32%, higher than previous literature. Together with existing literature, our data may enable future strategic recommendation of DCS patients.
