What is Ewing's sarcoma?

it would be nice if you could give me a very close to exact answer to what Ewing's sarcoma is.

Ewing sarcoma is a highly malignant primary bone tumor. It was first described by James Ewing in 1921. The tumor is derived from red bone marrow. Most frequently, it is observed in children and adolescents aged 4-15 years and rarely develops in adults older than 30 years. Ewing sarcoma accounts for approximately 5% of biopsy-analyzed bone tumors and approximately one third of primary bone tumors. Ewing sarcoma is the second most common malignant bone tumor in young patients, and it is the most lethal bone tumor. Males are affected more frequently than females, with a ratio of approximately 1.5:1.
