Abstract :

Cancer coexisting with pregnancy is rare and presents considerable implications for the patient and the fetus. Malignant bone tumors are rare with Extra-skeletal Ewing sarcoma being a rare subtype amongst the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT).  Development of such a tumor in pregnancy is still rarer. Management strategies in such rare instances are based on anecdotal evidence and a limited number of available case reports and series. Here we report a case of a pregnant patient presenting with extra-skeletal Ewing sarcoma in third trimester of pregnancy.
