World J Clin Cases. 2021 Jul 16;9(20):5709-5716. doi: 10.12998/wjcc.v9.i20.5709. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Chondroblastoma (CB) is an intermediate tumor of cartilage origin. CB involving the sacrum is a very rare pathology. CASE SUMMARY: A 17-year-old male with sacral CB was diagnosed as CB during the first surgery, and 18 mo later, the tumor recurred and a second surgery was performed with the same pathology result of CB. CONCLUSION: We recommend complete removal of the tumor in a timely manner, provided that surgical conditions are met. At the same time, other diseases should be carefully differentiated in terms of imaging or pathological features so as to avoid erroneous diagnostic conclusions.
