The results obtained in 12 cases of still clinically localized Ewing's sarcoma by associating radiation therapy of the primary focus with intermittent systematic chemotherapy are reported. Two of these patients presented pulmonary and bone metastases 12 and 14 months respectively after bioptic diagnosis while the remaining ten were in good health and free from metastasis at between 6 and 28 months (average 16 months) after biopsy. Although it is considered necessary to make further observations before the association's validity is certain, it is considered that on this basis and on the basis of the few cases reported in the literature than the association of rationally conducted systematic chemotherapy with local radiation therapy will extend the onset time of metastasis and so increase average survival in Ewing's sarcoma.
