Abstract:
Ewing's sarcoma is an uncommon malignant neoplasm of the bone, which is rather infrequent in childhood and represented only 2% of all neoplasm under the age of 15 years. Clinical picture was that of progressive paraplegia associated with localized pain. The authors have experienced a case of primary Ewing's sarcoma of the first and second lumbar vertebrae in a 26-year-old male.
