Radiological features of multifocal embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma affecting the vagina and the urinary bladder in a pediatric patient.
Аннотация
Rhabdomyosarcomas are the most common soft-tissue sarcomas, found usually in the younger age group. Histologically, they are subdivided into embryonal, alveolar, pleomorphic and not otherwise specified. They have a heterogenous appearance on imaging with few additional characteristic features based on the subtype. Botryoid variant of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma commonly involves the genitourinary and the biliary system. They can be multifocal. Most of these lesions have a heterogenous appearance on imaging with areas of necrosis and haemorrhage. On ultrasound, they are polypoidal with cystic areas and are vascular. The lesions are hyperintense on T2 sequences, isointense to the skeletal muscle on T1 sequences and show heterogenous enhancement. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment along with radiotherapy or chemotherapy depending on the site and the stage of the tumour. We report a case of botryoid variant of rhabdomyosarcoma involving the vagina and the urinary bladder.
