RESUMO
Considering their usual bone localisation, Ewing's sarcomas of soft tissues are rare. We report a case of a 19-year-old patient who had been suffering from cervico-brachial neuralgia followed by symptoms of progressive spinal cord compression. Magnetic resonance imaging detected a tumour at the C [7] level in the antero-lateral part of the spinal canal with an intracanal extension via an enlarged inter vertebral foramen, mimicking a neurinoma. The patient underwent an incomplete tumoural exeresis. The pathological examination yielded typical findings of Ewing's sarcoma. The patient underwent chemotherapy followed by complementary tumoural exeresis and radiotherapy. Literature review denotes the exceptional feature of the presentation. Correct and definitive diagnosis is made by pathological examination. Management of Ewing's sarcoma with the three main modalities: surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy increase the patient's survival
