Abstract
- We report a case of primary Ewing sarcoma of the proximal phalanx of the right middle finger in an 18-year-old boy. He was treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by ray amputation. To restore maximum function, the index ray was transferred to the base of the third metacarpal bone and fixed with a plate. The function of his right hand after the operation was excellent and the cosmetic appearance acceptable. There was no evidence of local recurrence or metastasis after 20 months follow up.
