Ewings sarcoma of the pelvis

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Pelvis reconstruction after tumor resection poses a challenge, especially in younger patients where preserving the patient's function and mobility is paramount. CASE PRESENTATION: A 16 years old female presented in March 2019 with vague right iliac area pain, diagnosed as pelvic Ewing's sarcoma after imaging studies (MRI and MSCT scan) and obtaining an incisional biopsy. After initial chemotherapy cycles, the tumor decreased in size, and surgical intervention in two stages was performed...

In the past, BCOR-CCNB3 sarcoma was believed to be comparable to Ewing's sarcoma; however, current research has proven that it is, in reality, a distinct type of the illness, now classified as a distinct entity under undifferentiated round cell sarcomas. This tumour most frequently affects teenagers and young adults, and it is more prevalent in men. It can form in both bone and soft tissue, and it appears most frequently in the pelvis, lower extremities, and paraspinal region. Here, we describe a case of a soft tissue tumour in the proximal posterior portion of the right thigh of a 12-year-old male that was subsequently shown to be a BCOR-CCNB3 fusion using genetic analysis...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of complete resection of bone tumor in pelvic zone Ⅱ and reconstruction with allogeneic pelvis, modular prosthesis, and three-dimensional (3D) printing prosthesis. METHODS: The clinical data of 13 patients with primary bone tumor in pelvic zone Ⅱ who underwent tumor resection and acetabular reconstruction between March 2011 and March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 4 males and 9 females with an average age of 39...

BACKGROUND: Ewing sarcoma (ES) represents the second most common malignant bone tumor in children and young adults. ES is not a frequent finding in sites different from the skeletal. Common sites of appearance of ES are lower extremities, the pelvis, paravertebral spaces and head and neck. Primary extraskeletal ES located in the anterior mediastinum are very rare. These neoplasms should be discussed in specialized contests with a high volume of patients treated. Here, we present an uncommon mediastinal mass challenging in its characterization and management...

BACKGROUND: Ewing sarcoma (ES), the second most common malignant bone tumor after osteosarcoma in the second decade, occurs in 0.9% of cases as the primary non-sacral form. CASE: A 20-years-old male presented with acute paraparesis of bilateral lower limb and numbness following initial back pain for the last 6 months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lumbar spine revealed a 4 cm enhancing soft tissue mass at the L4/L5 vertebra extending into the spinal canal with compression of the thecal sac...

PURPOSE: Success of pediatric solid tumor surgery is regularly hampered by infiltration of essential neurovascular structures. A surgical dilemma arises when imaging data suggest a conflict between complete resection and preservation of neurological function. The aim of the study was to analyze data of children harboring tumors with involvement of neurovascular structure treated by an interdisciplinary pediatric surgical/neurosurgical team. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed data of 25 children undergoing surgery for solid tumors, in whom preoperative imaging showed a relevant involvement of nerve structures...

INTRODUCTION: Primary Ewing Sarcoma of Bone is a malignancy whose treatment requires both systemic chemotherapy and local control through surgical resection and/or radiation. Ewing Sarcoma of the pelvis has been noted to confer a worse prognosis relative to other anatomic sites of Ewing Sarcoma. This study explores the presenting features, treatment modalities for local control, and overall survival of primary Ewing sarcoma of the pelvis in comparison to other commonly affected anatomic sites...

We report the case of a patient with Ewing sarcoma involving the right pelvis in a 14-year-old girl who had multicycles of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and preoperative radiation therapy. She underwent an internal hemipelvectomy type I resection, according to Enneking and Dunham's classification without bony reconstruction. There was no intra- and perioperative complication. The patient has good function and needs no gait aids. She can walk with equinus foot compensated for leg shortening 5 centimeters and without a shoe-lift...

Ewing's sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive, poorly differentiated round cell tumor in bone or soft tissues. This rare neoplasm is found primarily in the long bones of limbs and flat bone of pelvis with a predilection in the second decade in life. Primary ES of the maxillofacial region is exceptional and constitute 1% ± 4% of all cases. This case report is aimed at highlighting a very rare clinical presentation of extraosseous ES of the chin region-a first of its kind.

BACKGROUND/AIM: Ewing sarcoma is a common primary bone tumor, often located in the distal femur or pelvis. Although the scapula is a flat bone similar to the pelvis, scapular Ewing sarcoma is rare. The aim of this study was to review our institution's experience with the management of scapular Ewing sarcomas. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We reviewed 9 patients with an Ewing sarcoma of the scapula, which included 5 males and 4 females with a mean age of 19±6 years. All patients were treated with chemotherapy and local control...

Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a small round cell sarcoma which usually occurs in the paediatric and young adult age groups. This pictorial review briefly discusses and presents the typical skeletal and extraskeletal locations which ES is encountered, including the metadiaphysis of long bones, pelvis, chest wall and paravertebral regions. Five cases of ES in atypical locations are then presented along with an observation of demographic differences between skeletal and extraskeletal ES. These cases include ES arising from the metatarsal, scapula, breast, intracranial soft tissue and the paranasal sinuses...

PURPOSE: Ewing sarcoma is a primary malignant bone tumor that manifests predominantly in the proximal long bones and pelvis and traditionally presents with nonspecific symptoms. This tumor preferentially affects children and young adults, occurring most often in patients of European descent. The most important established prognostic factor is the presence of metastasis at the time of diagnosis followed by primary site, size of the primary neoplasm, patient age, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels...

Ewing sarcoma is the second most common primary bone tumor in children. Typical Ewing sarcoma most frequently occurs in long bones and within the pelvis. ALES (adamantinoma-like Ewing sarcoma) is a rare subtype of Ewing sarcoma that is characterized by epithelial differentiation in addition to small round blue cells. Unlike typical Ewing sarcoma, ALES has been described in several cases in the head and neck. Herein, we describe a case of a 9-year-old boy with ALES of the mandible evaluated on 18F-FDG PET/CT with correlative MRI scans...

PURPOSE: The ideal local treatment modality for pelvic and sacral Ewing sarcoma (EWS) is controversial. METHODS: We present the data from the American College of Surgeon's National Cancer Database (NCDB) and the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Result (SEER) database to investigate the impact of local treatment modalities on survival for nonmetastatic pelvic and sacral Ewing sarcoma. Local treatment includes "surgery," "radiation," and a combination of "surgery and radiation...

PURPOSE: Our aim was to assess the effect of radiation therapy (RT) dose escalation on outcomes in surgically unresectable Ewing sarcoma (ES)/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET). METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients with nonmetastatic unresectable ES/PNET (excluding intracranial/chest wall) receiving vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, and etoposide chemotherapy, planned for definitive RT, were accrued in this single-institution, open-label, phase 3 randomized controlled trial...

Ewing's sarcoma (ES) is a small blue round cell tumor, malignant in nature typically affecting long bones and pelvis. Occurrence of ES in the head and neck region is rare and is reported to be 2%-3%, of which the chances of having primary lesion are rare. In the head and neck region, it has been reported to strike skull, supraclavicular region, parotid region, orbital floor, nasal cavity, maxilla, mandible and zygoma. We present a case of primary ES of the mandible in a 22-year-old female who reported with a palpable swelling on the lower left part of the face; and intraorally, there was a growth in the molar region...

Objective: To analyze the biomechanical properties of the rod-screw prosthesis based on a pelvic three-dimensional finite element model including muscle and ligament, and evaluate the effectiveness of zoneⅠ+Ⅱ+Ⅲ reconstruction of hemipelvis with rod-screw prosthesis in combination with clinical applications. Methods: A total of 21 patients who underwent hemipelvic tumor resection (zoneⅠ+Ⅱ+Ⅲ) and rod-screw prosthesis reconstruction between January 2015 and December 2020 were selected as the research subjects...

(1) Background: Younger age has been associated with better overall survival (OS) in Ewing sarcoma (ES), especially under the age of 10. The favorable survival in younger patients underlines the need for minimizing treatment burden and late sequelae. Our study aimed at describing clinical characteristics, treatment and outcome of a cohort of ES patients aged 0-10. (2) Methods: In this retrospective multicenter study, all consecutive ES patients aged 0-10, treated in four sarcoma centers in the Netherlands ( n = 33) and one in Spain ( n = 27) between 1982 and 2008, with a minimum follow-up of 10 years, were included...

BACKGROUND: Ewing's sarcoma (ES) is a malignancy that arises from bones or soft tissue, characterized by primitive small and round blue cells. Primary ES typically occurs in the long bones, vertebrae, or pelvis, and is extremely rare in the skull base. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 14-year-old girl presented with posterior cervical pain and dysfunction of multiple cranial nerves (CNs). Radiological investigation revealed a solid mass of the petroclival bone extending into the sphenoid sinus...

PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S): Pediatric patients with metastatic solid tumors historically have a poor overall survival. Some pediatric patients may still be potentially curable with aggressive local therapy to metastatic disease, and adult trials have defined a group of oligometastatic patients, where the use of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has an overall survival benefit. The purpose of this study is to report results of the use of SBRT in the treatment of pediatric metastatic disease...
