Abstract

Extra skeletal Ewing’s sarcoma (EES) is a rare, rapidly growing, round cell malignant tumour that can develop in the soft tissue at any location. Involvement of the paranasal sinus is a very rare entity. Nearly 80% of patients are younger than 20 years. Diagnosis is made after histopathological examination, immunohistochemical studies and cytogenetic studies. Treatment includes a multidisciplinary approach with surgery as the first line followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
