Small cell carcinoma has been reported to arise in many extrathoracic sites. However, such tumours arising from bone have not been previously described. We report what we believe is the first reported case of extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma of bone. The tumour arose from the fifth dorsal vertebra in a 60 year old woman. The patient was treated with local radiotherapy and combination chemotherapy and remains in remission, 18 months after diagnosis. As such extrathoracic small cell tumours are rare, there seem to be no clear-cut guidelines for treating them, but combination chemotherapy is recommended.
据报道，小细胞癌可发生于许多胸外部位。然而，此前尚未有源于骨骼的此类肿瘤的描述。我们报告了我们认为首例骨肺外小细胞癌病例。该肿瘤发生于一名60岁女性的第五胸椎。患者接受了局部放疗和联合化疗，诊断后18个月仍处于缓解期。由于此类胸外小细胞肿瘤罕见，似乎没有明确的治疗指南，但推荐联合化疗。
