Sarcoma botryoides in a Nigerian female infant.
A case of sarcoma botryoides has been reported in a 10-month-old Nigerian female infant. The tumor has behaved true to form by its location and histologic appearance. The prognosis in this child is still guarded, as chemotherapy has been the only form of treatment. Although she has been under observation for one year now, there has been no local recurrence of the tumor.
