Primary Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma of the foot with extensive skeletal and pulmonary metastasis: A rare case report.

Introduction: First -degree cutaneous extraskeletal Ewing's sarcomas (ESs) are incredibly uncommon skin-specific tumors that often present as a single, tiny lesion that is restricted to the mid-to-deep dermis or involves the subcutis. ESs can be clinically and pathologically misdiagnosed because of their rarity and physical resemblance to other cutaneous cancers. Case presentation: A 47-year-old nonsmoking woman was admitted after being transferred from a nearby hospital to check her right foot pain that had been present for three months and was significantly numbing the same side. Only a few lone cases or brief series are reported in the current literature. The typical description of ESs is that they are tiny masses with positive clinical behavior. Discussion: Despite being a rather common location, only infrequent and minor ESs of the foot are present. After the recommended operation and subsequent histology analysis, we identified this uncommon sort of tumors. Conclusion: Although it's rare, it's very important to consider this tumor in the differential diagnosis of foot pain with/without visible and/or palpable cutaneous lesion.

A large femoral primary cutaneous Ewing's sarcoma in a 35-year-old woman: Case report.

INTRODUCTION: Extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of mesenchymal origin, which is histologically similar to primary osseous Ewing's sarcoma. It has been well described in deep soft tissues. However, location in cutaneous or subcutaneous tissue has rarely been reported. Being seen principally in children, it can be seen, rarely, in old men. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of large primary cutaneous Ewing sarcoma within the left thigh of a 35-year-old woman, without osseous involvement. Physical examination. Histologically, it was a small round cell tumor that marked strongly for CD99. The diagnosis of cutaneous Ewing sarcoma was performed. DISCUSSION: The things that distinguish our case are that it is the first case in Syria, in addition to the size of the large tumor with diameters of 15 × 20 cm, and it is in a 35-year-old woman. CONCLUSION: Ewing sarcoma is a rare malignant small round cell tumor of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It should be differentiated from other cutaneous neoplasms composed of small round cells.

Primary superficial Ewing sarcoma: A unique entity? A case report including novel findings of ELF3 and TNFRSF14 copy number loss.

Primary superficial Ewing sarcoma (psES) cases are exceedingly rare, with fewer than 150 cases reported in the literature. Small case series have suggested differences between psES and Ewing sarcoma (ES) of bone or deep soft tissues: psES appears to have a more indolent course and a higher 5-year overall survival rate. PsES is more common in older adolescent females as opposed to younger males in their peak growth velocity years in bone or deep soft tissue ES. We present a case report of a 17-year-old female with a relatively static nodule on her left thigh for 4 years. Morphologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular evaluations confirmed ES. Patient underwent a gross-total resection and a shortened course of adjuvant chemotherapy without radiation. Cancer gene panel testing found three gene abnormalities (in addition to EWSR1-FLI1 fusion): CCND1 copy number gain, ELF3 copy number loss, and TNFRSF14 copy number loss. To our knowledge, this is the first published case report of psES to include genomic sequencing and the first to report ELF3 and TNFRSF14 abnormalities in ES. Larger series of psES cases with genomic profiling are needed to elucidate a possible genetic etiology for its more indolent clinical course and favorable outcomes.

A case of primary cutaneous Ewing sarcoma in a neutropenic patient.

Primary cutaneous Ewing sarcoma is a rare clinical presentation of Ewing sarcoma, usually occurring as a small, localized tumor on the extremities of young adults and associated with favorable prognosis. We report a case of primary cutaneous Ewing sarcoma, which presented on the sole of the foot of a 27-year-old patient with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia and neutropenia. Diagnosis was determined through histological features and staining, as well as fluorescence in situ hybridization and molecular testing. The patient underwent wide-local excision with plan to begin targeted chemotherapy, but unfortunately died from adenovirus pneumonia while neutropenic before targeted chemotherapy was initiated.

A peculiar case of large primary cutaneous Ewing's sarcoma of the foot: Case report and review of the literature.

INTRODUCTION: Primary cutaneous extraskeletal Ewing's sarcomas (ESs) are extremely rare tumors, limited to the skin and generally appear as a single small lesion, circumscribed mid-to-deep dermis or involving subcutis. Due to their rarity and morphological similarity to other cutaneous tumors, ESs are subject to being clinically and pathologically subdiagnosed. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 37-year-old man presented a large rapidly growing mass of the first toe measuring 9.5×8cm with no radiological evidence of bone involvement. The patient underwent wide surgical tumor resection; histological, immunohistochemical and molecular evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of ESs. Postoperative examinations revealed no metastasis and after 11 months follow-up no recurrences were detected. DISCUSSION: Current literature reports only a few isolated cases or small series. ESs are generally described as small masses with a favorable clinical behavior. Despite lower extremity is a relatively frequent site, only rare and small ESs of the foot have been reported. To our knowledge the present case is the largest ES of the foot. Despite its large size, the patient did not report any metastases confirming the hypothesis of treating superficial ES with surgery alone, thus avoiding adjuvant radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy and their related side-effects. CONCLUSION: ESs still remain exceedingly rare tumors and they could not be taken in consideration into differential diagnosis. This case represents a peculiar example of large ES in an uncommon site as the foot successfully treated with surgery alone, and may serve as an alert for those physicians who approach such rapidly growing superficial lesions.
