RESUMEN
Described as a rare anomaly of the placenta, with a reported incidence of 0.02%, mesenchymal dysplasia is a benign condition characterized by placentomegaly, grape-like vesicles and by microscopic features resembling those of a molar pregnancy, such as hydropic villi, cistern formation and dysplastic blood vessels. We report a rare case of placental mesenchymal dysplasia diagnosed in a pregnancy with early symmetric fetal intrauterine growth restriction and a normal karyotype. Based on this case report, we discuss the particularities of this condition, emphasizing the ultrasonography and histopathological findings.

Chondrosarcoma (CHS) is the third most common primary bone tumor after myeloma and osteosarcoma. Histologically, it is made of pure hyaline cartilage differentiation. The tumor itself may have myxoid modification and calcification. It occurs especially after 50 years, with an equal gender distribution. Most CHS are solitary, the etiology is still unclear and most of them are discovered accidentally. Early diagnosis is crucial for a good prognosis. In this paper, we would like to present a case of a female patient with an accidentally discovered CHS of the iliopubic and ischiopubic ramus of the pelvis. The purpose of this report is to highlight the importance of multidisciplinary management of tumor pathology, especially when the site of the tumor is surgically hardly accessible and to underline possible common genetic aspects of benign and malignant tumors.
