Ewing sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive small round cell malignancy that rarely involves the cranium, either primarily or metastatically. Its sequential occurrence with glioma in the same patient is exceedingly uncommon. We report a 24-year-old man with a history of tibial and abdominal ES who had previously undergone total resection of a left occipital low-grade glioma. This case highlights the rarity of cranial metastatic ES following occipital glioma and emphasizes the importance of long-term surveillance and consideration of possible underlying biological predisposition.
