Abstract
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is rare and a recently described, poorly differentiated malignant tumor and it usually presents with widespread intra-abdominal involvement. We report a case of DSRCT arising form the mediastinum which was treated with multimodality anticancer therapy in 15 year-old girl.
