PERCUTANEOUS NEPHROSTOMY FOR UNILATERAL HYDRONEPHROSIS Due To EWING
SARCOMA OF THE PELVIS IN A CHILD
Abstract
Background: Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a rare malignancy, most commonly
presenting as a bone tumor, histologically characterized by sheets of
poorly differentiated cells with small, blue, round nuclei and scant
cytoplasm. Ewing sarcoma that may originate from bone or soft tissue has
an increased tendency to involve the axial skeleton, particularly the
pelvis. Case Report: We presented a case of Ewing sarcoma originated
from pubis bone, who was underwent percutaneous nephrostomy due to
external pressure on the bladder and ureter. Conclusion: We recommend
placing optimal drainage, to each obstructed renal unit so treatment can
be started as soon as possible
