Ewing's sarcoma is uncommon round cell tumor affects most often in the bone and soft tissues of children and young adults. It has poor prognosis because of aggressive local spread and uncontrolled metastatic potential necessiting early diagnosis and intervention critical for survival of the patient. It primarily affects long bones, seldom occurs in the head and neck region.We report such a case of Ewing's sarcoma that affects mandible of a 13 yearsgirl child.
