Chondrosarcomas are malignant skeletal tumors with chondroid differentiation. Prognosis is largely dependent on histological grading, which suffer from significant interobserver variability. Telomerase activity and abundant telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) expression has previously been associated with chondrosarcoma grade and metastasis. We therefore analyzed the hTERT promoter in clinicopathologically...
