title: Ewing sarcoma of the clavicle: a case series.
abstract: Clavicle is a rare primary site for Ewing sarcoma (ES). We analyzed 4 patients with clavicular ES under our follow up and reviewed the literature on management of this rare tumor. All our patients were females with a median age of 16 years and were non metastatic at presentation. After a median follow-up of 21.5 months, 3 out of 4 patients are in complete remission. Clavicular ES in contrast to ES of other sites seems to have a female preponderance and outcomes are similar to non metastatic ES of other common sites.
