Core Tip	We are presenting an article of Ewings sarcoma (ES) of the patella-a rare entity treated by a novel technique. The common reported tumors of the patella include chondroblastoma, giantcell tumor, osteosarcoma, metastasis, etc. We could not find any report on a single case of ES/PNET in the patella treated with patellectomy and extensor mechanism reconstruction using tendoachilles auto graft in the whole of English bio-medical literature. We present here a case of ES of the right patella in a 26 years old female. All reported extensor mechanism reconstructions after patellectomy were by tendoachilles allografts. We resorted to a novel technique of reconstruction of the extensor mechanism using tendoachilles auto graft.
