[A case of mediastinal angiosarcoma].
    Revue des maladies respiratoires, 2012, Volume: 29, Issue:9

    Mediastinal angiosarcoma is a rare intrathoracic tumour and the therapeutic approach remains poorly codified.. We report the case of a 65-year-old female patient presenting with chest pain. Further exploration revealed an anterior mediastinal mass with pericardial invasion. Transthoracic biopsy gave the diagnosis of angiosarcoma. Multimodal treatment with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (doxorubicin 20 mg/m(2), Ifosfamide 2500 mg/m(2), Uromitexan® 2500 mg/m(2)) and surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy has led to remission of the tumour that has persisted for 12 months.. Systematic recording of such conditions in dedicated registries could contribute to enhance the description of the clinical and pathological characteristics, thus helping define the principles of specific management.

Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma of the diaphragm presenting with hemothorax.
    The Annals of thoracic surgery, 2004, Volume: 78, Issue:2

    Ewing sarcoma is a relatively uncommon malignant bone neoplasm that usually occurs in children and young adults and involves the major long bones, pelvis, and ribs. Primary diaphragmatic Ewing sarcoma is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, only three cases of primary Ewing sarcoma of the diaphragm have been reported. A 12-year-old girl presented spontaneous occurrences of the right hemothorax. After drainage, a roentgenogram film, computed tomography, ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance image showed a giant mass on the right diaphragm. Primary diaphragmatic tumor was resected totally by right posterolateral thoracotomy, and histologically, an extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma was identified. The patient received adjuvant radio-chemotherapy, and there was no evidence of disease 10 months after the operation. Although extremely rare, extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of diaphragmatic soft tissue tumors.
