Abstract
Askin tumor is a rare malignant thoracopulmonary tumor that primarily affects children. In University Hospital Mohammed VI's Pediatric Oncology-Hematology department, two young patients with Askin's tumor were treated. Chest computed tomography imaging in both patients revealed an Askin's tumor, which was later confirmed histologically. Both patients got postoperative chemotherapy as well as a surgical excision of the tumor. One of them passed away as a result of a localized chest wall recurrence. In this article, we discuss our experiences with this serious pathology.
