Abstract
Introduction: A dual malignancy with both Ewing Sarcoma and Prostate Adenocarcinoma has not been reported in the English literature. We report a case of simultaneous diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma and prostate adenocarcinoma with profound clinical manifestation. Case presentation: A 53-year-old male with advanced metastatic prostate cancer (Gleason-9) admitted with classical presentation of cauda equina syndrome including incontinence, back pain, and paresis following bilateral nephrostomy insertion for the treatment of bilateral renal hy-dronephrosis. The patient was diagnosed with an epidural abscess at the level of L5-S1 and an emergency surgical spine decompression was performed. No abscess was found, and pathology results showed a concomitant primary Ewing sarcoma in the spine. Conclusions: Very rare occurrences of a dual primary malignancy, in this case, Ewing sarcoma and prostate adenocarcinoma, should be kept in mind in patients suffering from complex clinical course of malignancies.
