Abstract
A Clinical Case Study of Paratesticular Rhabdomyosarcoma of Young Adult
Highlights
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a rare mesenchymal tumor characterized by the presence of cells identifiable with rhabdomyoblasts
We report the case of a 19-year-old adolescent in our department for an embryonic-type para-testicular rhabdomyosarcoma
We would like to emphasize on the fact that paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma need to be brought up in front of a tissular process expanding in the scrotum with normal testicules
Summary
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a rare mesenchymal tumor characterized by the presence of cells identifiable with rhabdomyoblasts. The genitourinary sites of sarcomas are among the most frequent (34%) [1]. Paratesticular localization accounts for only 7% of intrascrotal neoplastic sites [2,3]. Furthermoren, differentials often arise with scrotal emergencies that may hide the malignant nature of the pathology. These tumors are characterized by their rapid evolution and poor prognosis if diagnosed lately [5]. We report the case of a 19-year-old adolescent in our department for an embryonic-type para-testicular rhabdomyosarcoma. Our goal is to expose a rare and unknown case that may be life-threatening
