Abstract

Neoplasms arising from scapula are rare. We herein, present a rare case of Ewing’s sarcoma of scapula in a 9-year-old male child. Extensive literature search reveals that less than 20 similar cases have been reported so far. The index case had been treated with multimodal therapies—chemotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy. This case is reported to highlight the rarity of the case and discuss the review of literature comprehensively.
