Ewing's sarcoma is the second most common pediatric bone tumor. Primary Ewing's sarcoma occurring in the cerebral cranium is exceptionally rare, with only one reported case of multiple tumor lesions in adolescence to date. We report a case of a 5-year-old male patient with multiple primary Ewing's sarcomas associated with the cranial bones, the first pediatric case report to date.

The purpose of this article is to provide data concerning the clinical and therapeutic course of multiple primary Ewing's sarcomas in associated with cerebral cranium.
