[Prognosis of pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma. Review of literature and a case report].
Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are responsible for 5% to 10% of childhood cancers. In children, they are the most common sarcoma of the head and neck, urogenital tract, and limbs. We report a case of botryoid type rhinopharyngeal RMS in a 14-year-old girl which had a favorable outcome. The prognostic factors of RMS were reviewed.
