Ewing's sarcoma of the hand: magnetic resonance images and treatment

J Hand Surg Am. 1995 May;20(3):441-4. doi: 10.1016/S0363-5023(05)80103-0.

Abstract

Two cases of Ewing's sarcoma of the hand were treated by preoperative chemotherapy and radiation therapy to decrease tumor volume. Magnetic resonance images were useful in showing the soft tissue mass and in estimating the effect of the chemotherapy. The results of surgery were satisfactory with this treatment regimen.
