Ewing's Sarcoma

2019-02-05 06:03:40
I had posted a couple of questions about a month ago after my son was diagnosed with Osteomyelitis but we got a biopsy done and the histopathology report impression says there is small round cell neoplasm which suggests it is Ewing's Sarcoma. They have sent for IHC. May I know what exactly is IHC and how can we know which grade of sarcoma this is?  Please advise.
