Abstract
The authors observed a 27-year-old male patient who came to the Infirmary of Kyungpook National University Hospital who had complained of dull pain in right mandibular angle area 1 month ago. As a result of careful analysis of clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings, the authors diagnosed it as Ewing's sarcoma and obtained the results as follows: 1. In clinical examination, main clinical symptoms were continuous dull pain and gingival swelling on the 2nd and 3rd molar area of the right mandible. 2. In radiographic examination, ill-defined radiolucent area was seen on mandibular right angle area, and apparent periosteal reaction of sun-ray spicule was emanated from the lingual cortex of mandibular angle area. And computed tomograph also revealed moderate-defined 3. soft tissue mass of the same area. In histopathological examination, small round-shaped, and closely packed cells with scanty cytoplasm were observed in this specimen, and positive reaction in PAS staining was also observed.
