Abstract :
The stomach is a very unusual site of metastasis. Published reports on metastatic lesion in the stomach is generally limited to singlecase reports and case series. Gastric metastasis in an Ewing’s sarcoma is extremely rare and has been reported in English literaturebut once to our knowledge. We present a case report of Ewing’s sarcoma of the right proximal femur metastasizing to the stomach.A young female treated for Ewing’s sarcoma of the femur in 2012 presented with gastric metastasis after four years of disease-freeinterval. She was treated with irinotecan-based chemotherapy followed by total gastrectomy with esophagojejunal anastomosis andradiation therapy. At one-year follow-up, she was disease free.
