Ewing sarcoma (EwS), a malignancy primarily affecting adolescents and young adults, encompasses various types such as bone, extraskeletal, chest wall, and soft tissue-based tumors, all of which share a common genetic origin. A small portion of them are extraosseous, impacting diverse anatomical sites. Characterized by a specific translocation, this rare cancer rarely involves the vagina, with very few documented cases. This report details the unique case of a middle-aged woman diagnosed with extraosseous vaginal EwS, a rarity in this age group and gender. With no established guidelines, a multidisciplinary approach is crucial, emphasizing the need for further case reporting to enhance understanding and management strategies.
尤因肉瘤(EwS)是一种主要影响青少年和年轻成年人的恶性肿瘤,包括骨、骨外、胸壁和软组织肿瘤等多种类型,它们都有共同的遗传起源。其中一小部分是骨外的,会影响不同的解剖部位。这种罕见的癌症以特定的易位为特征,很少累及阴道,仅有少数病例记录。本报告详细介绍了一名中年女性被诊断为骨外阴道尤因肉瘤的独特病例,这在该年龄组和性别中实属罕见。由于没有既定的指南,多学科方法至关重要,强调需要进一步报告病例以加强理解和管理策略。
