Ewing's Sarcoma का निदान कैसे किया जाता है? | How is Ewing's Sarcoma Diagnosed? | Dr. Chet

In this video, Dr. Chetan Anchan (Orthopedic oncologist working at Speciality Surgical Oncology Hospital Mumbai) will explain to us how the diagnosis of Ewing’s Sarcoma is done.

Ewing Sarcoma, also known as PNET (Primitive Neuro Ectodermal Tumor), is a rare type of musculoskeletal cancer that can be found in bones as well as the muscle tissues around the bones. It is more commonly found in long bones such as the forearm bones or thigh bones. It is also found in pelvic bones, the spine, and ribs. It is found in neck muscles, thigh muscles, stomach muscles, and back muscles as well.

00:33 - How is Ewing Sarcoma diagnosed?
Ewing Sarcoma, like any other bone cancer, can be easily localized by doing an X-ray. It can be easily located and understood by the means of an X-ray. So when symptoms are found in the typical findings, there might be a chance of the presence of this disease.

After these findings are discovered and if these findings are paired with fever, pain, and swelling, doctors often get confused about it being osteomyelitis i.e. bone infection. Ewing’s Sarcoma is often confused to be osteomyelitis and is treated in the same way as osteomyelitis which can mar the treatment of Ewing’s Sarcoma. Thus only an X-ray and clinical symptoms are not enough for the diagnosis of Ewing’s Sarcoma.

An MRI scan is done and the entire organ that is affected by it is screened. MRIs can help to determine the exact extent of the tumor including nearby blood vessels and nerves. After confirming the presence of Ewing’s Sarcoma via X-ray and MRIs, a biopsy is done in which a sample is taken from the disease and sent to the lab to do further investigations and get a proper histopathological report.
