CONTEXT: Ewing's sarcoma is a rare neoplasm, which usually arises in long bones of the limbs and in flat bones of the pelvis, with the involvement of head and neck bones being very unusual. CASE REPORT: a case of Ewing's sarcoma occurring in the mandible of a 35-year-old female. Pain and swelling of the tumor were the main complaints. The early hypothesis was an undifferentiated malignant neoplasm, possibly a sarcoma. The CT scan depicted an expansive lesion, encapsulated, with septa and characteristics of soft tissue, involving the left side of the mandible and extending to the surrounding tissues. The patient underwent surgical excision of the lesion, the definitive diagnosis of Ewing's sarcoma was established, and the patient commenced on radiotherapy.

Primitive neuroectodermal tumour/extraskeletal Ewing’s sarcoma (PNET/EES) is a rare disease of the head and neck region. We report a case of a 74-year-old man with a laryngeal Ewing’s sarcoma. This is the first reported case of extraskeletal Ewing’s sarcoma of the larynx in an elderly male patient. The patient was successfully treated with surgical resection and post-operative radiotherapy.

Paediatric sinonasal tumours comprise numerous aetiologies. Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) consists of a malignancy of neuroectodermal origin. This type of sarcoma affects mainly children and adolescents and can assume the skeletal or extra-skeletal form. Primary ES of head and neck is extremely rare, accounting for only 4%–9% of all cases. So far, as much as we know, only a few cases of sinonasal ES have been reported in literature. The authors present a case of a previous healthy 12-year-old girl who presented with a rapidly growing and expansive frontal mass and unilateral nasal obstruction. Immunohistochemical, molecular and cytogenetic analysis of the lesion showed diffuse expression of CD56 and CD99 on tumour cells and a translocation involving chromosome 22q12, confirming ES diagnosis.
