Abstract

A case of surgically resected solitary parenchymal brain tumor in a 13-year-old girl, who was treated 18 months ago with chemotherapy and radiotherapy for cervical vertebral Ewing sarcoma is presented. The intracranial primitive neuroectodermal tumor was detected after admission for severe headache. No other metastasis or recurrences were encountered following 14 months after brain surgery. The authors discuss whether this parenchymal brain tumor was a metastasis or a second primary Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor.
