Abstract

We report a case of Ewing's sarcoma located in the ethmoid sinus. The patient complained of facial pain, anosmia and visual defect. Diagnosis was established at microscopic examination with histoimmunochemistry and molecular biology. Treatment combined chemotherapy and surgical resection with skull base reconstruction and post-operative ratio and chemotherapy.
