Abstract :
Extraskeletal Ewing’s Sarcoma constitutes about 6% of all primary malignant tumours (1). However, extradural presentation involving the lumbar spine is a very rare finding. In this report, we discuss a primary lumbar spine extraskeletal Ewing’s sarcoma in a 39 years old woman who presented with chronic radicular pain and proximal muscle weakness of right leg which is a rare finding of extradural lesion affecting L2–L5 vertea and spreading paraspinally along its nerve roots through the interverteal foramina and involving the psoas muscle. Imaging studies revealed the possibility of a neurofioma, a benign tumour. After surgical decompression and postoperative histopathological study the diagnosis of Extradural Ewing’s sarcoma was confirmed, an uncommon presentation.
