Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the biliary tree in children: a case report.
Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERS) in children is a very rare tumor. Jaundice is the capital symptom. Diagnosis can be made by echography, which shows echogenic formations without posterior conic shadows in a dilated biliary duct. The prognosis is bleak in spite of the combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
