    AbstractThe chondromyxoid fibroma as a benign bone tumour is described. The difficult but extremely important differential diagnosis from chondrosarcoma is discussed, and the question of the existence of malignant chondromyxoid fibroma is examined. Cases of malignant chondromyxoid fibroma that have been reported in the literature are described and critically analysed. Experience with seven chondromyxoid fibromas and two tumours misdiagnosed as malignant chondromyxoid fibromas are described. In view of the clear definition of chondromyxoid fibroma and chondrosarcoma the term malignant chondromyxoid fibroma is not justified and should no longer be used.
