Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a highly malignant tumor originating from bones, exceptionally long bones. ES arising from the epidural extramedullary space, primarily the cervical region, is highly unlikely. There have been only six cases of cervical epidural extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma (EEES) in children reported in the literature, all of whom were older than seven years old. Four of seven cases, including the one mentioned in this study, were male (57%). Herein, we report a 1.5-year-old girl who presented with quadriparesis without cognitive impairment and had initially undergone a metabolic disorder evaluation. The spine MRI revealed a mass in the C2-T6 region, and she underwent a biopsy of the tumor via laminectomy. Microscopic examination confirms a diagnosis of ES based on immunohistochemistry. This is the first literature that presents an infant with EEES.
尤因肉瘤(ES)是一种起源于骨骼的高度恶性肿瘤,极少发生于长骨。起源于硬膜外髓外间隙,主要是颈部的尤因肉瘤极不可能发生。文献中仅报道过6例儿童颈椎硬膜外骨外尤因肉瘤(EEES),所有病例年龄均超过7岁。包括本研究中提到的病例在内,7例中有4例为男性(57%)。在此,我们报告一名1.5岁女童,她出现四肢瘫痪但无认知障碍,最初接受了代谢紊乱评估。脊柱磁共振成像显示C2 - T6区域有肿块,她通过椎板切除术进行了肿瘤活检。显微镜检查通过免疫组织化学确诊为尤因肉瘤。这是首篇报道婴儿患EEES的文献。
