UTILITY OF BONE MARROW ASPIRATION AND BIOPSY (BMAB) IN INITIAL STAGING OF EWING SARCOMA (EWS) Lisa M. Kopp, Winston W. Huh, Cynthia E. Herzog, Chengcheng Hu, Andrea White-Collins, Beatriz Rozo, Angela Yarborough, PoojaHingorani
Background • Pediatric and adolescents patients with newly diagnosed Ewing Sarcoma (EWS) have a bilateral bone marrow aspiration and biopsy (BMAB) performed as part of the initial staging evaluation • BMAB is a painful procedure that is performed using general anesthesia
Background The NCCN guidelines on bone cancer recommend the option of either a BMAB or MRI of the spine and pelvis in newly diagnosed adult patients The necessity of a BMAB in staging pediatric and adolescent EWS patients in addition to radiological evaluation has not been previously established
Objectives To evaluate the association between imaging determined non-metastatic EWS and BM metastasis in pediatric and adolescent patients To evaluate the association between BM metastasis and other clinical characteristics of pediatric and adolescent EWS patients
Methods • Retrospective review involving 3 institutions • Eligibility: Patients less than 40 years of age with newly diagnosed EWS between the years 2000-2012; available initial staging scans and BM evaluation • 116 patients • Initial staging reviewed • Imaging (MRI primary site, CT chest, Bone scan) • Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy
Metastatic Patients Metastatic site: Patients with multiple metastatic sites:
BMAB Results None of the 85 non-metastatic patients determined by imaging had positive BMAB A positive pelvic primary site was not correlated with a positive bone marrow
BMAB Results 13 of 31 metastatic patients by imaging had positive BMAB
Conclusion Pediatric and adolescent Ewing sarcoma patients with non-metastatic disease by imaging may have a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy eliminated as part of initial staging In patients with metastatic disease there is a high correlation between bone marrow metastasis and the number of bony metastatic sites
