Here we present the clinical course of a 15-year-old patient with metastatic Ewing sarcoma to bone marrow. MRI confirmed changes in

the marrow of long bones and molecular genetic studies revealed sensitive and specific Ewing sarcoma translocation (11;22) (q24;q12)

with creation of fusion gene EWSR1.
