title: [Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma].
abstract: We report a case of paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma in a six-year-old boy. The clinical presentation was subacute. The patient underwent a radical right inguinal orchidectomy. It was classified in IRS-III stage IA (based in the Third Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study). Subsequently, the child received 3 chemotherapy courses (9 weeks) with vincristine and actinomycin D. The patient is found to be asymptomatic 1 year after the treatment.
