Extraskeletal Ewing Sarcoma is rarely reported. A fifteen-year-old girl presented with the right-sided pleuritic chest pain, shortness of breath, and productive cough with whitish sputum associated with poor oral intake. She subsequently underwent contrast-enhanced Computerized Tomography thorax, which showed lobulated heterogenous hypodensity occupying the entrance of the right superior pulmonary vein, extending to the left atrium.

“…First described by James Ewing et al [2], the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors encompasses a group of malignancies that include Ewing sarcoma of the bone, extraosseous Ewing sarcoma, peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET), and thoracopulmonary PNET, also known as Askin tumor [3]. PPES is rare, with only a handful of cases reported so far (Table 1) [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Imaging plays an important role in the evaluation of this rare clinical entity.…”

Primary pulmonary Ewing sarcoma is an extremely rare tumor of neuroectodermal tissue. In this article, we report on the case of a 45-year-old female who presented in the emergency department with shortness of breath and night fever. Radiologic findings suggested a massive pulmonary mass and a metastatic liver lesion. The diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma was established through a percutaneous biopsy of the lung mass and liver lesion. We highlight the importance of considering a broad differential diagnosis for a large pulmonary mass in order to lead to a prompt diagnosis and treatment.

“…Surgery and/or radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment protocols are applied to patients diagnosed with EWS [10]. Positive results have been obtained in the cure and survival of EWS cases with the intensive combined chemotherapies and standard treatments carried out within the framework of therapeutic adaptation studies during the last decade [11,12]. Despite all the treatment protocols applied, the tumour can recur or metastasize [13].…”
