  • Title: Ewing's sarcoma of the scapula with metastases to the lung and eye.
    Author: Green DM, Marinello MJ, Fisher J, Mindell ER, Zak TA, Allen JE, Khan AR, Brecher ML.
    Journal: Am J Pediatr Hematol Oncol; 1986; 8(2):134-43. PubMed ID: 3740367.
    Abstract:
    A small, round cell tumor of the left scapula was found in a 3-month-old female Caucasian child. The histology was consistent with Ewing's sarcoma. Subsequently, a solitary pulmonary metastasis was excised. Thirty-one months after diagnosis, the child presented with leukokoria and a solitary pleural metastasis. The histology of both was identical to that of the original scapular tumor. G-banded karyotypes of the pulmonary metastasis and the ocular tumor revealed the presence of a balanced translocation, 46,XX, t(11;22)(q24;q12), which supported the original diagnosis of Ewing's sarcoma.
