Abstract

Ewing’s sarcoma is a malignant tumor, with an extremely aggressive growth pattern and a high risk of metastasis. In our work we demonstrated a case of primary lesion of Ewing’s sarcoma of the thoracic vertebra in a 10-year-old girl. Localization, in this situation, the tumor poses a serious threat to the development of neurological deficits, which is associated with a high need for early recognition of this neoplasia with the help of modern methods of radiation diagnosis (computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, SPECT).
