Narayanan, Geetha Sreelesh, K. P. Somanathan, Thara Soman, Lali V.

Abstract


Primary Ewing's sarcoma (EWS) arising from cranial bones is rare and accounts for only 1%4% of all EWS. We report the case of a 15-year-old girl with EWS of the frontoparietal region of the skull. She underwent excision following which she received combination chemotherapy with vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide alternating with ifosfamide, and VP16 and local radiation of 45 Gy. She is alive in complete remission at 40 months.
