Ewing Sarcoma of Fibula: A Pediatric Case of Disease Regression and Bone Regeneration. Case Report and Literature Review.

Abstract

Ewing’s sarcoma is a rare type of bone malignancy that occurs mostly in the bones of the pelvis and the limbs. We report a case of Ewing’s sarcoma developed in the peroneal bone of a 10-year-old boy, with a severe affectation of the bone and pulmonary metastasis. Chemotherapy was administered to the patient. Approximately two years after first presentation, radiological exams indicated a nearly complete regenerated fibula and PET-CT scan indicated an inactive right lung mass. This case showed the incredible potency of recovery in pediatric patients and highlights the need for a personalized approach in pediatric orthopedic oncology.
