Emergency treatment for primary Ewing's sarcoma of the ribs
MM Murton and DC Newman
Two cases of primary Ewing's sarcoma of the ribs necessitating emergency
treatment are reported. Treatment consisted of a combination of
radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgical therapy. The operation was urgent
and early in one patient and delayed in the other. Both remain disease free
12 and 14 months after operation, respectively.
