Popis: Our paper describes the clinical features, roentgenographic manifestations, pathology and the results of various modalities of treatments of 46 cases of Ewing's sarcoma seen and treated at Henry Ford Hospital during the past 36 years. Surgery alone (4 cases) produced a 25% five-year survival rate, whereas radiotherapy alone (33 cases) yielded only a 3% five-year survival rate. Radiotherapy plus chemotherapy (9 cases) have proven to be far superior than radiotherapy alone. The overall five-year survival rate of our series is only 7%.
