Abstract

Background Ewing Sarcoma (ES) ranks second among mesenchymal malignancies in children and young adults. Scapular Ewing sarcoma (SES) represents <4% of ES cases with limited literature. We report a case of SES with uncommon respiratory symptoms in a 37-year-old male and conduct a systematic review to improve comprehension of SES demographics, clinical attributes, and management.
