How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Relevance: Ewing’s sarcoma is an aggressive tumor rarely found in the head and neck region and extremely rare in the nasal cavity or paranasal sinuses (2-3% of all Ewing’s sarcomas). Purpose: To presents a clinical diagnostic case of nasal cavity Ewing’s sarcoma finally verified only by IHC test. Results: The presented clinical case describes Ewing’s sarcoma of the nasal cavity in a 14-year-old girl and presents the clinical picture, the results of MRI and CT examination of the sinuses, histopathological and IHC tests. Adequate diagnostical tools made it possible to establish a diagnosis. Timely determined treatment tactics, taking into account the tumor localization and possible postoperative complications, led to tumor remission. At present, the patient is under dynamic observation. Conclusion: The presented clinical case confirms that a primary nasal cavity Ewing’s sarcoma diagnostic largely depends on histopathological examination since visual diagnostic techniques do not provide reliable information on the tumor type.
