  • Title: Ewing's sarcoma of the fibula presenting with venous thrombosis.
    Author: Tasci I, Erdem G, Dogru T, Sonmez A, Demiralp B, Kurt B.
    Journal: Clin Transl Oncol; 2008 Dec; 10(12):847-9. PubMed ID: 19068459.
    Abstract:
    Malignancies account for about 20% of incidentally diagnosed venous thromboembolism. Surgery- or chemotherapy-induced risk of thrombosis is also high in patients with cancer. We report on a young male with skeletal Ewing's sarcoma who presented with deep vein thrombosis in the affected limb, which is quite a rare clinical condition. Venous thrombosis of the lower extremities in young patients should prompt the clinician to search for underlying local malignancies.
