Ewing sarcoma most often grows in sheets, with occasional calcifications (a empty arrow head) and patchy areas of necrosis (a arrow). The vessels within the tumor can range from thick-walled vessels (a arrowhead) to thin-walled or delicate sinusoidal-like vessels a (b, c arrowheads). Cells with round, monotonous nuclei and scant cytoplasm are characteristic of Ewing sarcoma. The cytoplasm contains variable amounts of glycogen, typically producing a foamy appearance with indistinct cell boarders (d); however, completely clear cytoplasm (e) or solidly eosinophilic (f) can also be seen b Fig.

Anterior-posterior (a) and lateral (b) radiographs of the knee demonstrate a large mass involving the distal femoral metaphysis with classic features of conventional osteosarcoma including dense “cloud-like” osseous matrix, cortical destruction with mass extension through the cortex. (c) Coronal T1 fat-saturated post-gadolinium imaging of the same patient better depicts the size of the soft tissue mass and extension of the osteosarcoma than radiography. Note the cortical destruction along the lateral aspect of the femur.
