Abstract

Ewing’s sarcoma is an uncommon malignancy occurring in childhood. It rarely involves maxillofacial region and particularly the orbital region in adults. We present a rare case of Ewing’s sarcoma involving the maxilla together with left orbit and the complete clinical, radiographic and histological evaluation is done. The prognosis is poor due to the neoplasm’s uncontrolled potential for metastatic spread, and therefore early and appropriate intervention is needed.
