Abstract

Ewing's sarcoma of the jaw is a rare primary malignant bone tumor. Three cases, two in the mandible and one in the maxilla, are presented, together with complete histologic, radiographic, and clinical evaluations. While the prognosis for patients with this lesion remains poor, an increased rate of survival is now associated with multiple-drug chemotherapeutic regimens.
