[Malignant neuroectodermal tumor of the arm in a 15-year-old girl successfully treated with chemo- and radiotherapy].
In a 15-year-old girl with right upper arm tumor diagnosed at first as neuroblastoma, the second histopathological examination revealed PNET. In spite of the advanced stage of disease (IIIrd or IVth) surgical excision was not performed but chemotherapy (8 courses of VADRAC and 8 courses of VP16 + CDDP) and radiotherapy (40 Gy) was administered. After 4 initial cycles all symptoms of the disease disappeared. The child remains in CCR for 60 months, including 40 months of therapy.
