Abstract
We are reporting a case of Askin's tumour in a 28 year old male, on the right side of the chest wall, with no symptoms and signs of a pulmonary involvement or a distant metastasis. A wide excision of the tumour mass was done. Immunohistochemistry strongly expressed MIC-2. The prognosis of Askin's tumour is poor. An early diagnosis and treatment are important to improve the chances of a survival.Entities:
