Chondrolipoma is a rare benign mesenchymoma composed of mature cartilage and adipose tissue. Here we present a 33-year-old woman with chondrolipoma of the ankle. She had been aware of a growing, solid mass on the front part of the right ankle for six months. On examination, a elastic hard mass of 3×3cm, with no adhesion to the skin, but to the base was observed. She underwent the marginal resection of the tumor. No local recurrence has been noted for 5 months postoperatively.
