[Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma diagnosed antenatally].
A case of congenital embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the right shoulder is described. The patient was the first child born to a 24 year-old woman who had previously been treated for sterility. The diagnosis was made by echography during the 36th week of gestation. This full term white boy was born by cesarean section because of the tumor size. Surgical treatment was completed by chemotherapy. Despite 4 courses of VAC, local recurrence was noted that led to a second surgical excision followed by a new cyclic chemotherapy (IVA). The treatment was fairly well tolerated. The child is well 24 months later.
