Ewing’s sarcoma is a very rare type of cancerous tumor that grows in your bones or the soft tissue around your bones, such as cartilage or the nerves. It usually affects people from the ages of 10 to 20 and has a high rate of being cured.
Ewing’s sarcoma affects about 200 children and young adults every year in the United States and shows up slightly more often in males. While adults can get Ewing’s sarcoma, it is uncommon. It mostly affects white people and has rarely been found in African Americans or Asian Americans.
Types of Ewing’s Sarcoma
The kind of Ewing’s sarcoma you might have can be seen where the tumor forms. The pelvis is where it most often starts, followed by the femur (or thigh bone). Regardless of where it starts, it can spread to other bones, bone marrow, and even vital organs such as the lungs, heart, and kidneys
