[Rhabdoid tumor of the neck].
Three pediatric cases of malignant rhabdoid tumor of the neck are described. Clinical data and imaging findings (US, CT and MRI) are stressed. The mass was well defined, containing punctate calcifications in two cases and encasing the vessels in two other cases. Two patients were treated with a chemotherapy regimen according to MMT 89 SIOP protocol, one had chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Two children died of progressive disease; the remaining child who had complete surgical removal of the tumor is on remission 17 months after diagnosis.
