Only a few cases of Ewing′s sarcoma are diagnosed in adults; however, they are well described in the long bones of individuals in the 5-20 years′ age group. With the following case series, we have tried to emphasize the wider age range and the involvement of short bones observed in Ewing′s sarcoma patients. Fine needle aspiration has a definitive role in the early diagnosis and hence, better prognosis of this disease.
