Abstract :

Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumour (PNET) is a small round cell malignancy of primitive neuroectodermal tissue or migratory, pluripotent neural crest cells that arises from the soft tissue (extra skeletal variety) or bone, affecting older children and adults. Recently, Ewing sarcoma and PNET have been unified into a single category: the ESFT (Ewing Sarcoma Family Tumours) based on shared clinical, morphologic, biochemical and molecular features [1]. In this article, we present here a case of a 35–year old male with metastatic Ewing sarcoma of the left kidney which is a very rare entity.
