Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma: report of a case and review of literature.
Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma is a primitive small round cell neoplasm found in children and young adults. Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma has been recognized as being histologically indistinguishable from Ewing's sarcoma of the bone and other round cell tumors. Our study reports the clinical course and histopathologic features of this rare variant, occurring in a 13 year-old boy, who presented with a subcutaneous tumor of the right thigh without osseous involvement. Wedge resection of the tumor was done followed by chemotherapy with Actinomycin-D, Oncovin and Endoxan.
