RECURRENCE OF EWINGS SARCOMA

2020-04-04 09:23:00
My son aged 5 yrs 10 monthshas had a recurrence of Ewings Sarcoma (left distal end of radius) after undergoing 16 cycles of chemo from Feb 2019 to March 2020 at a leading hospital in Kochi. CT Scans of the chest and abdomen do not show any growth of the disease. Per doctor's, bone marrow test result will decide the course of radiation therapy - palliative or curative. Chemo was going on quite well and this recurrence was totally unexpected since an earlier bone marrow test in June 2019 turned out to be negative. Kindly provide likely prognosis and suggestions as soon as possible. (Attached CT scan report and biopsy report)

Hi, it's quite unfortunate
Next Steps
salvage chemotherapy followed by autologous BMT can help, but frankly speaking overall prognosis is grim
