Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children and represents a high-grade neoplasm of skeletal myoblast-like cells. A lot of research over years has improved our understanding of the disease. There are two major subtypes of RMS, based on the pathology image and are characterised by their own features and prognosis. Early diagnosis of the disease, its staging and treatment helps in preventing morbidity and mortality. ionizing radiation, or both. This article presents a case of RMS in a young boy and helps us to understand the disease. Whenever we come across any paediatric patient with unusual scrotal swelling, appropriate investigations should be done keeping in mind the probability of RMS. We also outline potential opportunities to further translate new biological insights into improved clinical outcomes.
