Two new cases of primary extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma of the spinal epidural space, and their histogenesis and differential diagnosis are described. The diagnosis of Ewing's sarcoma, which is essentially an undifferentiated tumour, depends largely on the exclusion of several other neoplasms with morphological similarities. With these two cases, 43 extraosseous Ewing's sarcomas have been reporte...

Patients with Ewing's sarcoma should be transferred to a comprehensive cancer center for evaluation and management when the diagnosis is suspected. Proper biopsy technique is essential to preserve all therapeutic options, including limb preservation surgery. In addition to conventional histologic examination, biopsy tissue must be obtained for molecular biology studies. Demonstration of the con...

Ewing's sarcoma is a malignant, small, round cell neoplasm that normally affects the long bones of the limbs or the pelvis. It is a relatively frequent malignant bone tumor in children. The occurrence of the primary tumor in the facial region is approximately 2%, with most of the cases affecting the mandible. Primary zygoma involvement is rare and as per the available literature only three case...

Nanomedicine is based on the fact that biological molecules behave similarly to nanomolecules, which have a size of less than 100 nm, and is now affecting most areas of orthopedics. In orthopedic oncology, most of the in vitro and in vivo studies have used osteosarcoma or Ewing sarcoma cell lineages. In this article, tumor imaging and treatment nanotechnology applications, including nanostructu...

Solid tumours in the inguinal scrotal area (inguinal, testicular and para-testicular) are infrequent in the clinic. After its observation, depending on factors such as age, time of evolution, metastatic disease and blood markers at diagnosis, clinicians oriented to one origin or other. However, this approach may lead to a wrong diagnosis and treatment approach. In this publication, we report an...

ten cases of synovial cell sarcoma are reported. the youngest patient was a 2'a years old boy with synovial cell sarcoma of the knee and the oldest one was a man with synovial cell sarcoma of the elbow.

A 15-yr old boy presented with low backache for 4 months associated with weakness of left lower limb. MRI of lumbosacral spine showed a sacral lesion with intraspinal and presacral soft tissue extension with neural compression. A diagnosis of tuberculosis was considered in the view of high prevalence in this part of the world, however biopsy revealed Ewing's sarcoma. Ewing's tumor of sacrum is ...

Candida spp are the fourth most common group of nosocomial pathogens isolated from patients on medical, surgical, and intensive care wards. Polymicrobial candidaemia has rarely been described. The diagnosis of candidaemia from peripheral blood smears has not been widely reported. This report describes the case of a young woman suffering from Ewing's sarcoma who developed a syndrome of septic sh...

STUDY DESIGN Case report. OBJECTIVE We present a case of isolated primary epidural lumbar Ewing sarcoma and review the current literature on the standard management. We also propose laminoplasty as safe procedure in this patient population that can provide good stabilization in young people. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Primary epidural Ewing's sarcoma is a very rare entity. The best generall...
