This report documents the first known case of extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma involving the carotid artery, managed with surgical excision and reconstruction.
Alerts clinicians to rare carotid masses; leaves open optimal multimodal management and long-term outcomes.
Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma (EES) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of primitive mesenchymal cells. There is a scarcity of data on EES involving the head and neck, with studies being over years or even decades. We are the first to report a case of EES involving the carotid artery and its subsequent surgical excision and reconstruction.
