Ewing Sarcoma

Treatment of Children

A child-friendly environment, the latest advances in treatment, and highly skilled pediatric oncologists are all part of Mayo Clinic's program to treat children who have Ewing sarcoma. Other specialists such as orthopedic oncologists, radiation oncologists and pediatric surgeons, as well as rehabilitation experts, social workers and child life therapists, are consulted as your child's condition warrants.

• In Minnesota, children are treated by experienced specialists in pediatric hematology/oncology. Children who need inpatient care stay at Mayo Eugenio Litta Children's Hospital, a family-friendly, specially designed children's hospital within Saint Marys Hospital. Mayo Clinic is a member of the Children's Oncology Group, a national group of cancer centers that collaborate and conduct clinical trials to develop effective treatment approaches for treating children with cancer.
• In Arizona, Mayo Clinic specialists may work with doctors from Phoenix Children's Hospital as a team to provide care.
• In Florida, Mayo Clinic specialists may work with doctors from Nemours Children's Clinic as a team to provide care.

Specialists approach adult and pediatric cases of Ewing sarcoma with many of the same diagnostic and treatment options, including surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Most patients receive a combination of treatments.
