PORTA ALESANDRIA, Julieta; MASQUIJO, J. Javier; VAZQUEZ BESTARD, Luis M.  and  TOLEDO, Ignacio J.. Condroblastoma de astrágalo. Reporte de un caso y revisión de la bibliografía. Rev. Asoc. Argent.

Chondroblastoma (CB) is a rare benign bone tumor that represents between 1% to 2% of all primary bone tumors. Because only abouy 4% of them are located in the talus, the literature is scarce. We present a case of an 18-year-old male patient who presents with a chondroblastoma located in the right talus. He had an uneventful recovery; with no complications at his last follow-up at 15 months. We also reviewed the published literature to discuss the diagnosis and treatment of chondroblastoma in the talus.

Keywords : Chondroblastoma; talus; surgical treatment.
