Abstract

Ewing sarcoma, along with peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumour, belongs to a tumour family that shares clinicopathologic and molecular genetic features, including the characteristic chromosomal translocation that results in the fusion opf EWS gene on 22q12 to either FLI1 gene on 11q24. In contrast , such translocations are not found in central primitive neuroectodermal tumours(cPNETs). Ewing sarcoma has only rarely been noted to primarily involve the central nervous system- extraoseus Ewing sarcoma(CNSESS). We report a case series of three patients with intracranial extension.
