Abstract
- Chondrolipoma is a rare benign mesenchymoma composed of mature cartilage and adipose tissue. We present a 71-year-old man with a chondrolipoma of the great toe. On histological examination, the tumor contained both mature fat cells and chondrocytes. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a chondrolipoma on the toe. This case contributes to better awareness of an extremely rare lesion of the distal lower limb.
