Extraskeletal Ewing`s sarcoma was first reported by L. Angervall and F.M. Enzinger in 1975. Clinically the tumor affects mainly young adults and children The extraskeletal Ewing`s sarcoma are mainly involved the soft tissues of the trunk and lower extremity. Microscopically. extraskeletal Ewing`s sarcoma is indistinguishable from the Ewing`s sarcoma of bone. We recently experienced a case of extraskeletal Ewing`s sarcoma of the anterior chest wall in a 13-year old female. The patient underwent local wide excision and postoperative radiation and combind chemotherapy were done. This group of tumors has been rarely reported in Korea. We presented a case of extraskeletal Ewing`s Sarcoma in the anterior chest wall with reviw of world literature.

The Ewing`s sarcoma is the primary malignant bone tumor but the tumor also occurs as a primary soft tissue neoplasm without involvement of bone. Here is presented a case of extraskeletal Ewing`s sarcoma in the posterior and superior mediastinum with review of literature. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of extraskeletal Ewing`s sarcoma in Korea.

Extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma is a very rare tumor which was first reported by Angervall and Enzinger in 1975. The common sites of extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma are bony structures of lower extremities, paravertebral region, and pelvis, but rarely chest wall. Microscopically, extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma is indistinguishable from the Ewing's sarcoma of bone. We present here a case of extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma of the left lateral chest wall in a 19-year-old male. Wide extirpation and postoperative combined chemotherapy were done, and we discuss the clinical picture, histopathology, therapeutic management, and prognosis with review of the literature.

Ewing's sarcoma usually arises from skeletal bone, but rarely may have an extraskeletal origin. However, Ewing's sarcoma that originates around the spinal column, especially, the intradural extramedullary type is extremely rare. We report a rare case of primary intraspinal extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma.

Ewing`s sarcoma is a highly malignant tumor which occurs most frequently in the diaphysis of the long bones, although any bone may be involved. Ewing`s sarcomas occurring in the rib are rare. Recently, we experienced one case of Ewing`s sarcoma which arose in the right second rib in a young female patient. She was treated with three principal treatment modalities-en bloc excision of chest wall followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Clinical course is described with review of related literatures.

Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma is a rare primary malignant soft tissue tumor which is histologically identical to Ewing's sarcoma. This tumor tends to involve the soft tissue of the lower extremity and paravertebral region of adolescents and young adults but particularly rare in infants. We recently experienced a case of extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma which presented in the left arm of 4 months infant.

Ewing's sarcoma is a neoplasm of the undifferenciated small round cells, which generally affects the bone and deep soft tissues of children and adolescents. We present a case of gastric Ewing's sarcoma; a 35-year-old female who had no symptoms. While she was at a routine medical checkup, a protruding mass in her gastric antrum was incidentally found on esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Endoscopic ultrasonogram showed a submucosal mass on the same lesion and a laparosopic wedge resection was done. Pathologic gross findings showed a granular grape appearance tissue and histoloigc examination revealed a small round cell tumor with CD 99 immunoexpression positive. In general, a combined modality therapy for Ewing's sarcoma such as surgical resection with chemotherapy, is accepted as an effective method. However, this patient had no adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery and she has no recurrence for eleven months.

Most cases of Ewing's sarcoma are reported in the bone, and extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma is an extremely rare disease. Here, we report a rare case of primary pulmonary Ewing's sarcoma in a patient with hemoptysis. The patient underwent right upper lung lobe lobectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation therapy and has been free of recurrent disease for 4 years.

Ewing sarcoma is a rare tumor in head and neck area. We demonstrate a rare case of sinonasal Ewing sarcoma initially suspected as olfactory neuroblastoma. After the surgery and immunohistochemical studies, it was accurately diagnosed as Ewing sarcoma. We would like to emphasize the possibility that Ewing sarcoma may originate from the head and neck area, and hence, it is important to use appropriate techniques for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
