ABSTRACT
Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) is a rare and aggressive malignant tumor that typically involves the long bones of the extremities (skeletal form). The less common extra skeletal form involves soft tissues and rarely manifests in the head and neck region. Genetically, the abnormal t (11:22) chromosome translocation is a hallmark of diagnosis. Ewing’s Sarcoma of the nose or paranasal sinuses is a rare subset of this type of tumour to occur in Nose and Paranasal Sinuses and treatment consisting primarily of chemotherapy followed by surgery and/or radiotherapy.
Case details- A very rare case of 37 year-old female with an extra skeletal form of Ewing’s sarcoma who was diagnosed and operated in the department of ENT- Head & Neck Surgery, Agartala Government Medical College is presented here because of its rarity.
Key words: Ewing’s sarcoma (ES), Paranasal sinuses (PNS), Extraskeletal sarcoma (ES)
