Histologic section demonstrated a small round cell tumor with intracytoplasmic glycogen. Immunohistochemical and ultrastructural studies were compatible with Ewing's sarcoma.

Case follow-up after one year revealed a good response to chemotherapy. https://he02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/sirirajmedj/article/view/245019Extraskeletal Ewing's sarcomaProstate tumor |
