Özet

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a rarely seen benign cartilaginous tumor, and cranial vault involvement is infrequent. These tumors show slow progression and have a low recurrence rate if total surgical excision is achieved. In this article, a case of rapidly progressing sellar CMF with its clinical, neuroradiologic, and pathologic features is reported.
