(b) Axial T1-weighted (500/17) MR image reveals lipomatous components peripherally (arrows) and low-attenuation chondroid areas centrally (*). T2-weighted MR image (not shown) revealed diffuse high signal intensity. (c) Photograph of the axially sectioned gross specimen shows a peripheral lipomatous component (arrows) with central lobules of chondroid tissue (*).
