Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Rhabdomyosarcomas, particularly those of gynecologic origin, are very rare in adults. As a result, there is little literature on the optimal staging procedure and treatment modalities for this population.
CASE: A 43-year-old woman presented with a long-standing history of menorrhagia and was subsequently diagnosed with embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the cervix. She underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, lymph node dissection, omentectomy, and appendectomy, which also revealed a synchronous tubular carcinoid tumor of appendiceal origin. Plans for treatment involve adjuvant chemotherapy with vincristine, dactinomycin, and cyclophosphamide.
CONCLUSION: This case adds to the small body of literature surrounding cervical embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in women over the age of 40 years and proposes that appendectomy be considered during surgical management.
