Abstract
Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) of the cervix is rare and most commonly occurs in the late teens and early 20s. We report a case of cervical embryonal RMS in a 52-year-old woman. This patient presented with an abnormal vaginal bleeding for 2 months and a mass protruding from the introitus, measuring 7 × 6 cm. She underwent radical abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection and radical vaginectomy. The fi pathologic result was cervical RMS, consistent with the Intergroup RMS study group IIC. Immunohistochemistry was positive for desmin, myogenin, and myogenic diffentiation 1. The patient received conservative management in a convalescent hospital without adjuvant treatment due to cerebral hemorrhage and relapsed septic condition after surgery.
