EWING’S SARCOMA

Abstract

Ewing's sarcomas are rare neoplasms which comprise about 1% of all sarcomas. Сortical bones are usually affected. Cranial bones are rarely involved and are 1-6% of all Ewing's sarcoma cases. The article presents a case of a rare pathology - Ewing’s sarcoma of the temporal bone in a 36-year old woman and describes the morphological changes in the flat bones of the skull and the adjacent soft tissues of the head and their interconnection with data of clinical and laboratory and instrumental methods of investigation. Complexity of the lifetime diagnosis verification without histological and immunohistochemical confirmation has been shown on a concrete example.
