They make up about 1% of cancers in adults and 15% in children. Chondrosarcomas tend to affect the older age groups (50 to 60 years). The tissue of origin for chondrosarcomas is the cartilage. There are three tumor categories related to the tumor's grade or activity; low, intermediate and high grade. High grade are the faster growing cancers.
