ABSTRACT

Ewing's sarcoma (ES) is a rare malignancy of adolescence that usually presents with clinically apparent disease involving long bones, brought to attention by trauma and/or fractures. Hypercalcemia of malignancy is a well-known phenomenon; however, hypercalcemia is exceptionally rare in ES. This case report discusses a 20-year-old lady who experienced chronic bone pains in her hip and lower limbs, ultimately leading to a hypercalcemic crisis. We emphasize the importance of considering ES as a potential cause of hypercalcemia, highlighting the mechanism, diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, the associated poor prognosis, and the necessity for a multidisciplinary approach to managing the condition.
