Extrakeletal 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.
