Abstract

Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a highly fatal bone and soft tissue cancer that predominantly impacts adolescents and children. Primary ES can occasionally manifest as a tumour on the chest wall. Treatment typically consists of radiation, local surgery, and polychemotherapy, all of which have acute and chronic side effects that can detrimentally affect survivors' quality of life (QOL). In this case study, we discussed the case of a 19-year-old female who came with chief complaints of chest pain, swelling on the right side of her neck, difficulty breathing, and pain in her right shoulder radiating to her right arm and forearm for one year. She was diagnosed with ES of the chest wall and underwent chemotherapy treatment for the same at our tertiary care hospital. Our aim was to find out the role of physiotherapy, considering the radiological, pathological, and clinical aspects of the disease while the patient is undergoing chemotherapy sessions, which has been highlighted and found to be effective in increasing satisfaction levels, adherence to the treatment, improving muscle strength, lung function, and overall QOL.
