Ewing's Sarcoma family of tumors is a group of small round tumor cells. Ewing's sarcoma majority occurs in bone, accounts about 10 % of primary bone tumors. Extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma (ESS) is unusual and commonly seen in trunk, paravertebral, and chest wall region. It is rarely seen in head and neck region, accounting to 2-3 %. In head and neck region, ESS is seen in nasal or oral cavities, sinuses. EES originating in the larynx is very rare. Here, we report a 22 years old female having the complaints of change in voice and noisy breathing who was diagnosed as a case of EES of supraglottis. As the disease progressed during the time of diagnosis, she had to undergo emergency tracheostomy. The disease was inoperable so she received neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radiation followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. At present she is symptomatically better. The aim of this report is to put forward the rare site of Ewing's Sarcoma and highlighting the early diagnosis in suspected case with IHC, providing effective multimodality treatment.

Introduction: Ewing sarcoma is a rare paediatric cancer. Currently, there is no way of accurately predicting these patients' survival at diagnosis. Disease type (ie, localised disease, lung/pleuropulmonary metastases and other metastases) is used to guide treatment decisions, with metastatic patients generally having worse outcomes than localised disease patients.

Background: Extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma (EES) is a rare tumor, and there is currently no predictive model for overall survival of EES patients. This study sought to use data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to develop a clinical predictive model that could be used to assess the prognosis of EES patients.
Methods: We selected and downloaded prognostic data on 356 patients diagnosed with extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma based on screening criteria, These patients were distributed between 2004 and 2015.

Introduction: Neuroblastoma is an embryonic tumor of the peripheral sympathetic nervous system. It is the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood and accounts for up to 15% of all pediatric cancer fatalities. The manifestation of neuroblastoma is variable depending on the location of the tumor and the presence or absence of paraneoplastic syndromes.
