CASE: We reported the case of a young patient of 18 years, accusing pelvic pain for 5 months with a poor general condition, an MRI was performed immediately, objective infiltrative mass endopelvic evoking several etiologies. The histology of the biopsy extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma reveals a (CME). 's Staging came back normal. We performed an incomplete surgical resection due to the deep location of the pelvis in the tumor followed by radiotherapy.
