Abstract: 
Secondary chondrosarcoma is a known dreaded complication of osteochondral- mas, generally first suspected by new-onset pain; imaging studies indicate the thick cartilaginous cap indicates possible secondary malignant transformation. In this article, we discuss a case of secondary chondrosarcoma arising from os- osteochondroma in the pelvic bone.
