Surgical resection and reconstruction of the right ventricle and tricuspid valve can provide at least 1-year recurrence-free survival in patients with right ventricular metastasis of Ewing sarcoma.
May support surgical consideration in select right ventricular Ewing sarcoma metastases; leaves open need for larger prospective validation.
A 27-year-old man diagnosed with right ventricular metastasis of Ewing sarcoma was referred to our institution. We surgically resected the metastatic tumor to prevent sudden death and reconstructed the right ventricle and tricuspid valve. He has survived for 1 year postoperatively without recurrence.
