Abstract:
Extraskeletal Ewing' sarcoma (EES) is a rare soft tissue tumor morphologically indistinguishable from the osseous Ewing's sarcoma (ES). We report a case of recurrent EES of the breast that, to the best of our knowledge, has rarely been reported. It was initially confused for a cyst on ultrasound. In addition, MRI and breast-specific gamma imaging (BSGI) in our case have complementary value over conventional imaging.
