Pediatric Axial Ewing Sarcoma: A Retrospective Population-Based Survival Analysis.

This study underpins the importance of both early detection and chemotherapy-based multimodal therapy in the treatment of axial Ewing sarcoma in a pediatric population. A comparatively large decline in OS was observed between 5 and 10 years for patients with thoracic tumors, and this cohort's 10-year OS has not improved when compared with a similar SEER cohort from 1973 to 2011. Despite a growing body of research supporting definitive radiation therapy, a notable portion of patients with pelvic Ewing sarcoma did not receive radiation, representing an unmet need for this population.
