[Primitive neuroectodermal tumors of the minor pelvis in women--case report]

A primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET) of the minor pelvis is a rare malignant small-cell tumour developing from the neural groove. It metastatizes into the lungs, bones, liver and brain. Treatment involves radical surgical extirpation followed by chemotherapy and actinotherapy. The author presents the case-history of PNET of the pelvis minor in a 33-year-old woman.
