description Penile cancer is generally rare, and Squamous cell cancer of the penis is the most common histological type. Sarcoma of the penis has a low incidence, but they tend to grow faster than other penile cancers. One of the rarest types of penile sarcomas is Extra-Skeletal Ewing's Sarcoma (EES). The management of such cases can be challenging, and treatment guidelines do not exist for these rare cases. We present a rare case of EES that has developed in the penis of a young patient in the United Kingdom.
