| Abstract |
Ewing's sarcoma is a small, blue, round-cell tumor of mesenchymal origin which typically presents itself during the first and the second decades of life. Typically, it is noticed in the long bones of the limbs, pelvis, or ribs. There have been few reports worldwide with none in Pakistan of this rare phenomenon. We report here the case of a 16-year-old female diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma with intracranial extension abutting the temporal lobe resulting in proptosis and partial loss of vision in the left eye. The purpose of this case is to discuss the clinicoradiological presentation, microscopic description, and management of the patient. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 September 2014.
All research outputs
#20,237,640
of 22,764,165 outputs
Outputs from International Ophthalmology
#657
of 1,032 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#192,762
of 225,555 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Ophthalmology
#9
of 30 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,764,165 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,032 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.2. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 225,555 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 30 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
