Abstract

We review the case of an adolescent who presented with flank pain, fatigue and a discrete nonfunctioning adrenal lesion which was found to be an adrenal Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (ES/PNET). The patient was treated with a minimally invasive adrenalectomy as a component of multimodal therapy, including seven courses of chemotherapy and whole abdominal radiation. She is currently disease free 14 months after the operation and 3 months off therapy.
