No more than 10 casesof lumbar chondroblastoma have been reported in the past 20 years.To describe the clinical presentations and radiological features of a rare case of chondroblastoma of the lumbar spine, this study reportsone caseinvolving the third lumbar vertebrae.A 22-year-old femalepresented with left lower back pain and numbness. CT revealed tumour infiltration of the third lumbar vertebrae and left psoas major displacement, which was found to be a chondroblastoma by surgery.Lumbar chondroblastomas are very rare which seem to be aggressive on imagingfindings; with soft tissue extension, thin sclerotic rim and bony destruction. When encountering a vertebral lesion that seems to be aggressive on imagingfindings, we must be aware of the possibility of chondroblastoma.
