A Case of Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma of Cervix Uteri in a 14 Year Old Girl

Rhabdomyosarcoma is an aggressive soft tissue malignancy of childhood and adolescence arising from embryonal mesenchyme [1]. As compared to literature available, these tumours are mainly discussed in context of case studies. Most common affected sites are head, neck, abdomen and genitourinary tract [2]. Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common subtype, of which botryoid is a polypoidal variant. Botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma of female genital tract involves uterus, cervix and vagina, among which cervical type is a rare one. Due to involvement of younger age group, its management poses a clinical change as preservation of hormonal, sexual and reproductive function is essential.
