“…When Ewing's sarcoma does occur in the hand or foot, its radiographic features often differ from the more typical appearance of this tumor in other locations [5]. We report a case of Ewing's sarcoma of the hand with unusual radiographic features and illustrate the findings from a second patient.…”

“…6 Reinus et al reported in their study that the most common feature in cases of ES involving small joints of hand was a permeative bone lesion with poorly defined margins and an associated soft tissue mass which was also presented in our case. 7 Treatment of these tumors include local control of disease and adjuvant chemotherapy. Local control of disease can be achieved by surgery, radiation or both.…”

“…but location of tumour and presence of known metastasis at the time of presentation is the most important factor. 7 Kinsella reported use of combination therapy of chemotherapy and radiotherapy to control the primary lesion in the hand but the long-term result remains uncertain. 10 The treatment of ES is achieved through a Common European protocol called Euro Ewing 99.…”

Ewing’s sarcoma is the second most common bone tumour second only to osteosarcoma which represents a family of malignancies of neuroendothelial origin, which are highly aggressive and poorly differentiated. The most frequent sites involved are shaft of long bones such as femur, tibia and flat bones such as pelvis and vertebra. Ewing’s sarcoma of small bones of hands is very rare and distant metastasis with hands as the primary is even rarer. Here we describe the course of a 11-year-old male who presented with ewings sarcoma of fifth metacarpal who presented with lung metastasis without local recurrence of the disease after primary surgery and later succumbed to his illness.

“…Reinus et al reported 12 cases of Ewing's sarcoma involving bones of hands and feet, out of a total of 377 patients. The importance of this set of patients, therefore, relates to awareness and early recognition of an unusual appearance and location of Ewing sarcoma (8).…”

Introduction: Ewing sarcoma of bone represents the second most common primary malignant tumor of the bone in children and adolescents. The most common primary bony sites include the long bones, pelvis, chest wall, and spine. However, it is responsible for only 3% to 5% of cases in bones of the hands and feet. Case Presentation: The case was a 13-year-old girl, who attended our clinic with a complaint of 8 months of left ankle swelling and pain. Eight months earlier, she recalled an ankle torsion for which treatment was performed with long leg splint. Her pain was better, but, her swelling remained. The X ray showed a sclerotic lesion in the calcaneus with soft-tissue mass. Next, she underwent open biopsy, and was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma. She underwent chemoradiotherapy and obtained below knee amputation. She was followed up at our clinic. Conclusions:There are a few articles about early diagnotic effects of Ewing's sarcoma prognosis. Therefore, this study aimed at presenting an anatomical-rare case of Ewing's sarcoma as preliminary diagnosis could help the patient and lead to better outcomes.
