Abstract
Treating Ewing's Sarcoma of the thorax (Askin's tumor) with antineoplastic therapy in a malnourished cystic fibrosis patient colonized with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus may carry a significant potential for complications. We present the case of a known cystic fibrosis patient, diagnosed with Askin's tumor 5 years ago. Despite facing severe neutropenia, exacerbations of cystic fibrosis with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections, and challenges in maintaining adequate caloric intake during the oncological treatment, the patient's outcome has been favorable. Chemotherapy doses had to be adjusted, and continuous antibiotic treatment was introduced throughout the course of therapy to reduce the frequency and intensity of exacerbations. Approximately 5 years after the cancer diagnosis, with no signs of relapse, the patient was started on CFTR (Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) modulator treatment. This intervention has successfully corrected the weight deficit. The coincidence of Ewing's sarcoma of the chest wall and cystic fibrosis in a single patient is 2.857 × 10-5% and to the best of our knowledge, this scenario has not been documented before.

Abstract
Primary pulmonary Ewing sarcoma (PES) is a rare malignancy with only sporadic cases reported in the scientific literature. We performed a systematic review of the cases published in the last decade on PubMed, with the aim to describe the clinical, pathological, therapeutic, and prognostic data of PES. Forty-two articles reporting on 50 cases have been reviewed. Globally, 60 % of the patients were males, and the mean age at diagnosis was 30.5 years, with only a few cases diagnosed after 50 years of age. The most common clinical manifestations at diagnosis were dyspnea, cough and chest pain. The most common immunohistochemistry findings were staining for CD99 and (less frequently) for vimentin, and no staining for TTF-1, cytokeratin, desmin and S-100. ESWR1-FL1 translocation was tested in less than half of the cases. The disease was often locally advanced, treated generally with multidisciplinary treatment combining surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Among patients with follow-up data, approximately 40 % were dead at the time of publication, with the median survival being 11.5 months. Among those who were alive, only 8.3 % was free from disease at 48 months from diagnosis.

Abstract
Peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors (pPNETs) are rare, small cell carcinomas with a poor prognosis. The aim of the present study was to describe therapeutic approaches, outcomes and probable prognostic factors. The clinical features, treatments, and outcomes of 89 consecutive patients with pPNET treated at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1999 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. A total of 43 males and 46 females were included in the study, with a median age of 25 years (range, 5-73 years). The predominantly affected regions were the abdomen and pelvis, followed by the thoracopulmonary region. The mean primary tumor size was 12.6 cm (range, 1-30 cm). A total of 16 patients (18%) initially presented with metastasis. A total of 46 patients received combined therapy, 35 received mono-therapy, and 8 underwent only biopsy with no further treatment. The period of observation ranged from 1-232 months. The median overall survival (OS) time was 15 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 9-21 months], with 3- and 5-year OS rates of 32 and 25%, respectively. Large tumor size [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR)=3.65; 95% CI, 2.07-6.42; P<0.001), metastasis at initial presentation (aHR=4.34, 95% CI, 2.23-8.42; P<0.001), and combined modality treatment (aHR=0.16, 95% CI, 0.06-0.39; P<0.001) were significantly associated with OS. The prognosis of pPNET is, overall, poor. Large tumor size and metastasis at initial presentation are associated with poorer outcomes. This highly malignant tumor requires an aggressive combination of radical resection, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, when indicated.

Abstract
Primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) arising primarily in the lung is an extremely rare and aggressive malignancy with poor chances of patient survival. We present a case of long-term survival by a 29-year-old woman with PNET diagnosed after a hertological and immunohertochemical examination of a biopsy specimen obtained by performing video-assisted thoracic surgery. The patient underwent a left lower lung lobe lobectomy and 6 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. The patient has been free of any symptoms of the recurrence of the disease for 6 years after treatment completion.

Abstract
Ewing sarcoma/peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors (ES/pPNET), a member of the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors, is a malignant soft tissue tumor with small undifferentiated neuroectodermal cells. Primary trachea-bronchial ES/pPNET is very rare. The most common pulmonary ES is due to a metastasis. We describe a case of ES/pPNET which originated in the left basal trunk bronchus. The patient was a 30-year-old male, presenting with irritable cough and fever for 10 days. A tumor of 60 mm in diameter was found in the left basal trunk bronchus, extending to the left lower lobe. No distant metastases were detected. Histopathological examination revealed a malignancy of ES/pPNET with a diffuse proliferation of round cells, a Flexner-Wintersteiner rosette formation and positive staining for CD99. The patient was successfully treated with a combination of left lower lobectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy and has remained disease-free for approximately 18 months at follow-up. This case highlights that ES/pPNET should be considered as a differential diagnosis in cases of trachea-bronchial tumors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical, CT and pathological findings of paediatric peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumours (pPNETs) to enhance the recognition of these rare tumours. METHODS The clinical, CT and pathological findings of 18 paediatric patients with pPNETs confirmed by biopsy or surgical pathology were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS The age of these 18 paediatric patients with pPNETs ranged from 4 months to 15 years, with a mean age of 7.7 years. The lesions of these 18 paediatric patients with pPNETs were located in the head and neck (n = 4), chest (n = 2), abdomen and pelvic cavity (n = 6), spine (n = 3), ilium (n = 2) and femur (n = 1). Immunohistochemical examination revealed Homer-Wright rosettes in seven lesions, and 94.4% of lesions showed consistent positive staining for CD99. On plain CT images, the majority of pPNETs showed lesions that were ill-defined (72.2%), irregularly shaped (83.3%), heterogeneous (66.7%) or hypodense masses (94.4%), and together with osteolytic bone destruction when the lesion originated in the bone. Calcifications were found in three lesions. After contrast administration, all soft-tissue masses were persistently enhanced heterogeneously with various cystic or necrotic regions, and 71.4% of them had linear enhancement. 94.4% of soft-tissue masses showed a moderate degree of enhancement. Seven cases had lymph node metastasis at diagnosis. CONCLUSION Paediatric pPNET can involve any part of the body, and a large, ill-defined, aggressive soft-tissue mass and moderate heterogeneous enhancement with varying cystic regions and linear enhancement, with or without osteolytic bone destruction, on CT images could suggest the diagnosis. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Primitive neuroectodermal tumours constitute a rare type of malignant neuroectodermal tumours that have chromosomal translocations identical to Ewing's sarcoma, and reports about radiological characteristics of this disease in children are insufficient. This study has described the clinical features and CT and pathological findings in 18 paediatric patients diagnosed with pPNETs in different locations, as a way to enhance the recognition of these tumours and help to differentiate from other types of paediatric malignant bone and soft-tissue tumours.

Abstract
We experienced a rare case of an endobronchial primitive neuroectodermal tumor of the left main bronchus. Initially we suspected pneumothorax caused by a collapsed left upper lobe and an air-entrapped lower lobe. After tube thoracostomy, the pneumothorax persisted without air leakage. A tumor was detected at the left main bronchus on computed tomography and bronchoscopy, and diagnosed pathologically as small cell lung cancer. Under the presumed diagnosis of limited-stage small cell lung cancer, we performed a left pneumonectomy. The tumor was eventually identified pathologically as a primitive neuroectodermal tumor. Although adjuvant chemoradiotherapy was not performed, no recurrence was observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) constitute a rare type of malignant neuroectodermal tumors that have chromosomal translocations identical to Ewing's sarcoma (ES), and the characteristics of this disease remain unclear. PURPOSE To describe the clinical, radiological, and pathological features of peripheral PNETs (pPNETs) to enhance their recognition. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical, imaging, and pathologic findings of 35 patients with pPNETs were retrospectively reviewed, all being confirmed by biopsy or surgical pathology. All 35 patients had preoperative computed tomography (CT) examinations; 10 patients had preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies. RESULTS Of 35 pPNET patients, 54.3% had a primary tumor in soft tissue, the others in bone. On plain CT images, 33 lesions demonstrated heterogeneous hypodense masses with multiple lamellar lower density, and with osteolytic destruction if the tumor originated in bone. Calcification was only found in five lesions arising in soft tissue. All lesions enhanced heterogeneously with varying areas of cystic changes, and all lesions in bone and 52.6% of lesions in soft tissue showed ill-defined margins after contrast administration. On MRI, these tumors appeared in conjunction with osteolytic bone destruction and irregular soft tissue masses iso- to hypointense to skeletal muscle on T1-weighted images and showed heterogeneously high intensity on T2-weighted images. All lesions enhanced heterogeneously with cystic changes. Homer-Wright rosettes were observed in 15 lesions, and 97.1% lesions were positive for CD99 in histopathological results. CONCLUSION pPNETs can involve any part of the body, and a large, ill-defined, aggressive soft tissue mass and heterogeneous enhancement with or without osteolytic bone destruction on CT or MR images could suggest the diagnosis.
