Granulocytic sarcoma (extramedullary myelosarcoma, chloroma) is a rare extramedullary myeloid tumor which can occur at any anatomical site as isolated finding or associated with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). In this case, we describe a 71-year-old man who
Ewing's sarcoma is found exceptionally as a primary epidural tumor of the spine. Four cases of extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma of the spinal epidural space are presented. Another 17 cases were found in the pertinent literature and are discussed. There were 15 males and 6 females with mean age of 16
Primary intracranial sarcoma is a rare disease. Due to the scarcity of evidence from randomized clinical trials, we follow the treatment guidelines of their extracranial counterparts or those published in case reports, while taking into consideration the specificity of radiotherapy We report a case of a 30-year-old woman who developed an intraparenchymal cerebral metastasis from a Ewing's sarcoma of the chest wall diagnosed and treated 3 years earlier and in apparent remission at the time of the neurological presentation (seizures). The case was complicated by a spontaneous
BACKGROUND
Endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESSs) of the uterus are rare gynecological malignancies. Common locations of distant metastases are vagina, vulva, lung, mediastinum, abdomen, bones and ovaries.
METHODS
We present the case of a 69-year-old woman with a Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics
Ewing sarcoma is a malignant tumour of the bone that sometimes presents extraskeletal involvement, with the epidural location being rare. We report the case of a 45-year-old woman with paresthesia, paresis and urinary retention. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an epidural mass from C6 to D3.
Computed tomography (CT) has examined 200 patients (400 temporal bones) at the age of 0-74 with unaffected facial nerve and 28 patients with symptoms of peripheral paresis or paralysis of the facial nerve of different genesis. Polyposition CT of the temporal bone is an intravital noninvasive method
Temporary neurologic abnormalities were observed in one out of 23 patients undergoing chemotherapy with high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) for osteogenic sarcoma. This patient developed sequential symptoms including alternative hemiparesis, dysarthria and altered consciousness 5 days after the second
The autopsy findings of a 14-year-old Japanese girl with Ewing's sarcoma, who had multiple neurofibrillary tangles and Lewy bodies and hemiatrophy of the central nervous system (CNS), are reported. She had retinoblastoma of her right eye 8 months after birth, which was treated with chemotherapy and
A 2.5-year-old African hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris) with signs of progressive paresis/paralysis for approximately 6 months was diagnosed with 'wobbly hedgehog syndrome' (WHS). Post-mortem examination revealed a primary central nervous system (CNS) histiocytic sarcoma (HS) associated with
BACKGROUND
Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a part of a larger family of round blue-cell tumors that occasionally manifest as osseous or extraosseous lesions adjacent to or within the central nervous system (CNS). Although a large body of literature exists on ES of bone, data are lacking on tumors with cranial
Myeloid sarcomas are rare manifestations of mainly myeloblastic leukemia. Their occurrence in the central nervous system is exceptional and current literature is limited to case studies. A case is added herewith and a review was performed to investigate clinical characteristics and treatment options
The case of a 7-year-old boy with a spinal epidural extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma (EES) is presented. He is in complete remission without neurologic deficit 40 months after diagnosis. Another 15 cases were found in the literature and are discussed together with this patient. Twelve of them were male
The authors present an interesting case of a suckling baby treated for forearm tumour. All the preoperative examinations including the imaging methods are documented, as are the surgical procedures and the final results. The case report is interesting not only because such surgery is infrequent but
Two cases of primary intracranial malignant lymphoma are reported. Case 1 was a 65-year-old female who was operated on for a left frontoparietal tumor in 1966 at our hospital, and the tumor was diagnosed as reticulum cell sarcoma histologically. Irradiation was also done. Thereafter, she had had no
