Extrarenal rhabdoid tumour presenting as a congenital subcutaneous mass.
Extrarenal malignant rhabdoid tumour is a rare neoplasm of childhood. A congenital example has only been reported once previously, presenting as a facial mass. We report a second congenital case with the tumour over the right shoulder in which postoperative investigations revealed multiple hepatic metastases proving fatal at 51 days, with adjuvent therapy felt inappropriate.
