Ewing's sarcoma is an uncommon malignant bone tumour occuring in children, adolescents and young adults. We report a case of a 13 year old male admitted to Khulna Medical College Hospital with history of pain and swelling in chest wall for two weeks. Earlier chest X-ray showed a mass lesion in the left upper part of chest wall and erosion of first rib. Subsequent X-ray revealed left sided massive pleural effusion. CT scan revealed a mass lesion in the left upper part of chest wall originated from left first rib and left sided pleural effusion. FNAC from the mass lesion revealed features suggestive of Ewing's sarcoma. Patient was treated with chemotherapy and after first cycle there was significant improvement of all the signs and symptoms.Bang Med J (Khulna) 2017; 50 : 41-43

Four cases of a locally invasive sarcoma of the chest wall are described in children aged between 8 and 14 years. Although its morphology resembles a Ewing's sarcoma of bone there are light and electron microscopical features that are distinctive. The sarcoma is thought to represent an entity which has not previously been defined. Its clinical importance lies in the fact that the prognosis with appropriate treatment appears to be good. One child died after 2 1/2 years, but the others are alive 6, 8, and 16 years after presentation.
