Fetal malignant tumors are rare. We present a case of intrauterine diagnosis of a diaphragmatic tumor presenting with fetal hydrops at 32 weeks' gestation. The sonographic findings were bilateral pleural effusion, ascites and skin edema. A large right-sided diaphragmatic tumor was identified. Owing
We present an 8-year-old male with metastatic alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) who developed precipitous cardiopulmonary collapse with severe tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) 48 hr after initiation of chemotherapy. Despite no detectable pulmonary metastases, acute hypoxemic respiratory failure developed,
A 15-month-old male was referred for biopsy of presumed rhabdomyosarcoma in the setting of rapidly progressing left-sided proptosis. Examination revealed left periorbital edema and left hypoglobus. MRI revealed a soft-tissue density mass within the left lateral retrobulbar space. Several days later,
We report a patient who presented to the ENT service complaining of nasal obstruction, exophthalmos, edema and ipsilateral facial congestion. Imaging studies revealed an aggressive noncalcified solid mass centered in the left nasoethmoidal region and heterogeneous avid enhancement following contrast
Adult paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma (PRMS) with invasion of the retroperitoneum and involvement of the infrarenal aorta and inferior vena cava (IVC) is rare. We describe a 23-year-old male diagnosed with PRMS in 2008, previously treated with right orchiectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation, who
Proptosis in children with acute-onset accompanied by signs of inflammation is commonly caused by orbital cellulitis, however, the possibility of rhabdomyosarcoma should always be considered by the clinician. This is a case report of a five-year-old boy presenting with an acute-onset OBJECTIVE
Conventionally fractionated y-irradiation results in severe damage of tumor capillaries associated with decreasing oxygen partial pressure within the tumor. The present study was undertaken to assess whether vasculo-connective changes are less pronounced after continuous hyperfractionated
A 42-year-old female presented with right hemiparesis. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a slightly heterogeneous high density mass over the left frontal convexity with peritumoral edema, with homogeneous enhancement by contrast material. Magnetic resonance imaging showed the left frontal
Most patients with paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma may typically present as a unilateral, painless palpable scrotum mass. However, only a few cases of RMS presenting as painful edema of the scrotum mimicing epididymitis. We herein report an unusual case of alveolar paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma
Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an extremely rare malignancy in adults, accounting for 7% of all RMS cases and 6% of all non-germinal intrascrotal tumors. The clinical signs are similar to those of a hydrocele or testicular tumor, typically presenting as a unilateral, painless mass in the
OBJECTIVE
To describe a patient with a variant translocation (1;13)(p36;q14) in an alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma and compare the clinical course with four other cases.
METHODS
A 10-year-old girl presented with multiple masses involving the thigh, abdomen, chest wall, and scalp with pleural effusion and
We describe a case of 17 year-old male with a nasopharyngeal rhabdomyosarcoma who developed postobstructive pulmonary edema (POPE) after removing the endotracheal tube following biopsy. He developed muffled voice, rhinorrhea, dysphagia, odynophagia, and difficulty breathing through nose and weight
A 43-year-old woman presented with worsening shortness of breath and lower-extremity edema. Echocardiography and computed tomography showed obstruction of blood flow due to a mass filling the right atrium. Emergency surgery was performed for circulatory failure. Primary cardiac rhabdomyosarcoma was
OBJECTIVE
Two cases of pediatric orbital rhabdomyosarcoma leading to visual dysfunction with rapid growth.
METHODS
A two-year-old girl who presented with eyelid edema. MRI revealed a tumor in the orbit. The tumor grew rapidly resulting in eye ball displacement and corneal epithelium disorder, and
