Ewing sarcoma as a second malignant neoplasm after acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Second malignant neoplasms (SMNs) are being increasingly recognized. This report describes a case of a 7-year-old girl with a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who presented with a mass in her humerus that was diagnosed as Ewing sarcoma.
